Rob Polanski is a tractor salesman. Last week his total sales amounted to $38,642.00, and he received $2,704.94 in commission. What is his rate of commission? A. 5.9% B. 6% C. 7% D. 8.4%

Respuesta :

Answer: Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: 7%

Given that,

Total sales amounted = $38,642.00 ( last week total sales)

Commission Received = $2,704.94

Rate of commission = [tex]\frac{Commission\ Received}{Total\ sales\ amount}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2704.94}{38642}\times100[/tex]

= 0.07 × 100

= 7%

Therefore, the rate of commission is 7%.
