19. ellie makes 12.5% commission through selling makeup. if her total sales last month were $1,840, what will be her take - home pay?
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Convert percentage to decimal
$12.5%=0.125$
Step2: Calculate take - home pay
Let the take - home pay be $x$. We know that the commission rate times the total sales equals the take - home pay. So $x = 0.125\times1840$. $x=230$
Answer:
$230$
