Q:

Salesman Randy gets fixed salary of $2,000 per month and a commission of 2% on sale. If total sale is $30,000 for the month, find his total salary for the month?

Accepted Solution

A:
$2,600 would be his total salary

Lets break it down:

We already know that he gets 2,000 a month, so all we have to find is 2 percent of 30,000 (the commision is 2% of whatever about of goods he sells. He sold 30,000 dollars, so we need to find 2% of 30,000)

2 percent of 30,000 is 600

600+2,000=2,600

Hope this helps!
