Question

Sally is a real estate salesperson. She earns 8% commission. One
month she sold two houses for $69,700 and $84,500. How much
commission did she earn?
a. $5,576
b. $1,234
c. $12,336
d. $6,760
First, we need to find the total amount of sales Sally made: $69,700 + $84,500 = $154,200

Then, we can calculate her commission by multiplying the total sales by her commission rate: $154,200 x 0.08 = $12,336

Therefore, the answer is c. $12,336.
