Lin is shopping for a couch with her dad and heard him ask the salesperson “how much is your commission?” The salesperson says that her commission is 5 1/2% of the selling price. A.How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?

B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?

From the question, the commission of the salesperson is 5 1/2 % , we can convert to improper fraction as 11/5%, then we can convert to decimal by dividing the numerator by denominator which is 5.5% , we can convert from percentage by saying(5.5%/100)

= 0.055

A)How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?

His Commission will be

(0.055 x $495 )

= $27.23

B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?

Since we know this Commission as $27.23, then the amount the store get from sale will be

(difference between the commission and the selling price)

($495.00- $27.23)

= $467.77
