Question

Mia is a sales associate at an art gallery. Each week she earns $300 put 4% commission of all her sales. This week she earned $327. How much were Mia's art sales this week ? please help

Answer 1

i guess her commission was \(\$27\) so your job is to solve \(.04x=27\) for \(x\)

Answer 2

You mean "plus 4% commission", right?

Answer 3

yea plus 4% commission

Answer 4

The commission is $327 - $300 = $27
That $27 is 4% of her art sales.
Set up a proportion:
27 is to 4% as x is to 100%
27/4 = x/100
Now cross multiply and solve for x.

Answer 5

ok thankyou
