<h3>Philipe has to make a weekly sales of $ 3000 so that he can earn $ 360</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Philipe works for a computer store that pays a 12% commission and no salary
We have to find his weekly sales have to be for him to earn $360
From given, we can say,
12 % of weekly sales will earn him $ 360
12 % of weekly sales = 360
Let "x" be the weekly sales
12 % of "x" = 360
Solve the above expression
Thus Philipe has to make a weekly sales of $ 3000 so that he can earn $ 360
Naturally, any integer 
larger than 127 will return 
, and of course 
, so we restrict the possible solutions to 
.
Now,
is the same as saying there exists some integer
such that
We have
which means that any that satisfies the modular equivalence must be a divisor of 120, of which there are 16: 
.
In the cases where the modulus is smaller than the remainder 7, we can see that the equivalence still holds. For instance,
(If we're allowing
, then I see no reason we shouldn't also allow 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.)
