18,000-2,400= 15,600 15,600(.08)= $1,248 was from commission, but then you have to find what percent of the total was from commission

do you know what it is

She had $18,000.00 in sales, so her 8% commission would be: $1,440.00 Plus her base pay for her total Nov pay would then be $3,840.00. The percentage of her pay that was sales commission would be 1440/3840 =.375 or 37.5%
