To determine how much Dan had in sales last month based on his commission of $1,900, we need to know the commission rate he earned on his sales.
Assuming a commission rate (for example, let's say it is 10% or 0.10), we can use the following formula:
\[ \text{Commission} = \text{Sales} \times \text{Commission Rate} \]
To find the sales amount, the formula can be rearranged as follows:
\[ \text{Sales} = \frac{\text{Commission}}{\text{Commission Rate}} \]
Using the assumed commission rate of 10% (0.10), the calculation would be:
\[ \text{Sales} = \frac{1,900}{0.10} = 19,000 \]
So, if the commission rate is 10%, then Dan had $19,000 in sales last month.
If you know the actual commission rate, replace 0.10 with the correct rate and perform the division to find the sales amount.
