Question

Dan works in the sales department for sporting goods company. Dan gets a 15% commission on every bike he sells. If Dan sold 227 bikes at $70 each, how much money did Dan make?

Answer 1

Y = 70x • .15
y is his total money earned.
x is how many units he sells
so if he sells 227 bikes it’s 70 • 227 which is 15,890 then times it by .15 because he makes 15% and it’s 2.383.5. so he made $2,383 50¢!
