the commision comparison

commision rate =1.5% salary/wages= none weekly sales total=needs to be found weekly TOTAL=1425

Answer 1

To find the weekly sales total based on the commission rate and total earnings, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Weekly Total} = \text{Weekly Sales Total} \times \text{Commission Rate} \]

Given that:

- Weekly Total = $1425
- Commission Rate = 1.5% (which can be expressed as 0.015 in decimal form)

You can set up the equation:

\[ 1425 = \text{Weekly Sales Total} \times 0.015 \]

Now, solve for the Weekly Sales Total:

1. Rearranging the equation gives:
\[ \text{Weekly Sales Total} = \frac{1425}{0.015} \]

2. Calculating that:
\[ \text{Weekly Sales Total} = 95000 \]

So, the weekly sales total needed to achieve a weekly total of $1425 at a commission rate of 1.5% is **$95,000**.
