the total sales") means to multiply.

c

=

r

⋅

s

Where:

c is the commission earned, what we are solving for in this problem.

r  is the commission rate -  1/

32  in this problem

s  is the total sales - $24,000 in this problem.

Substituting and calculating  c  gives:

c

=1/32 x $24,000

c=$24,000/

32

c

=

$
