Question

PLEASE HELP THIS IS TIMED

Answer 1

Answer:

$6,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Form an equation

let s be the amount of sales

You know that the salesperson gets 3%, or 0.03 of the sales, so:

0.03x = 180

Then, solve

$0.03x=180$

multiply both sides by 100 to get rid of the decimal

$3x=18000$

divide both sides by 3

$x=6000$

So the amount of sales is $6,000
