Question

Ramona is a
saleswoman whose base pay plus commissions amounted to $52,561 last year. If her base pay was $23,960 and she made $77,300 in sales last year, what was her rate of commission?

Answer 1

you are given :

base pay + commission
base pay alone

so you can subtract (base pay + commission) - (base pay) to find the commission, then calculate the commission as a percentage of the total sales

lmk if you need help with any of these steps
