Question

A computer salesperson earns a base salary of $32,000 per year plus a commission of 6% on total sales. Total sales for one year were $350,000. Find the salesperson’s total pay for the year.

Answer 1

This is what I think you would have to do:

1) Find 6% of $350,000: (0.06 x 350000)
2) Add the # you find in 1) to the base salary to get the total pay for the year

Answer 2

21000
