Answer 1

To calculate the commission from the sale, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Commission} = \text{Sale Amount} \times \text{Commission Rate} \]

Here, the sale amount is $250 and the commission rate is 4%, which can be expressed as a decimal (0.04).

Now plug in the values:

\[ \text{Commission} = 250 \times 0.04 = 10 \]

Therefore, the sales commission is $10.
