Im so desperate
ms. davis sold $309.00 of books. at the end of the day, she earned $27.81 in commission for those sales. what is ms. davis' commission rate?​

question 8 options:

11%


9%


3.4%


2.81%

Sagot :

so Ms. Davis gets hmmm say "x" percent from sales as her commission, and we know she did in sales $309 and made $27.81.

if we take 309 to be the 100%, and x% of that is 27.81, what's "x"?

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 309 & 100\\ 27.81& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{309}{27.81}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 309x=2781\implies x=\cfrac{2781}{309}\implies x=9[/tex]
