How is multiplying fractions the same as multiplying whole numbers and different
gtnhenbr [62]
Well one similarity is that since you have to multiply, integer rules still apply and that you can also multiply variables. A difference is that with fractions, you have to make a number into an improper fraction rather than just the regular way which would most likely be the whole number with a decimal.

Mr. Babe used to work at a local furniture store.
8090 [49]

A. Mr. Babe made a commission of $14.85

B. He makes $15.75 per hour after the raise.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. While he worked there, Mr. Babe earned 3% on how much he sells. If he sold $495 couch, how much commission did he make?

Worth of sold couch = $495

Commission = 3%

Amount of commission = 3% of total worth sold

Amount of commission = \frac{3}{100}*495

Amount of commission = \frac{1485}{100}=\$14.85

Mr. Babe made a commission of $14.85

B. On top of his commission, Mr. Babe made $15 per hour. He eventually got a raise with an increase of 5% per hour. After the raise, how much did he make per hour?

Amount earned per hour = $15

Increase = 5%

As the increment is on per hour amount, therefore,

Amount of increase = 5% of per hour amount

Amount of increase = \frac{5}{100}*15=\frac{75}{100} = \$0.75

New amount per hour = Per hour amount + amount of increase

New amount per hour = 15+0.75 = $15.75

He makes $15.75 per hour after the raise.
