Hi there!
Mrs. Miller earns a commission of 6% of 179,000
The word "of" is the same thing as a multiplication sign.
6% of 179,000 = 6% × 179,000
6% = 0.06
6% × 179,000 = 0.06 × 179,000
0.06 × 179,000 = 10,740
Your answer is: Mrs. Miller earns $10,740 of commission.
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
It is a rational number because it is a terminated decimal and can be expressed as a fraction.
