To calculate the commission earned by the realtor on a $175,000 home with a commission rate of 5.32%, you can use the following formula:
\[ \text{Commission} = \text{Sale Price} \times \text{Commission Rate} \]
Substituting the values:
\[ \text{Commission} = 175,000 \times 0.0532 \]
Now, perform the multiplication:
\[ \text{Commission} = 175,000 \times 0.0532 = 9,310 \]
Thus, the realtor will earn $9,310 in commission from the sale of the $175,000 home.
