Question

You make a salary of $400 a month plus a 10% commission. If your total sales were $2000, how much money in total would you make this month?

Answer 1

Given:

Salary = $400 a month

Rate of commission = 10%

Total sales = $2000

To find:

The total money you will make this month.

Solution:

We have,

Rate of commission = 10%

Total sales = $2000

Commission = $2000\times \dfrac{10}{100}$

                    = $200$

We know that,

Total money = Salary + Commission

                     = $\ 400+\ 200$

                     = $\ 600$

Therefore, the total money you will make this month is $600.
