Question

O PERCENTS

Answer 1

Answer:

Commission rate = 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of merchandise sold = $2700

Commission earned = $405

We can find the commission rate by dividing the commission with total sales and multiplying it with 100.

Commission rate = $\frac{Commission}{Total\ sales}*100$

Commission rate = $\frac{405}{2700}*100$

Commission rate = 0.15 * 100

Commission rate = 15%

Hence,

Commission rate = 15%
