Thomas has been offered two jobs. the first job pays $880.00 per week. the second job pays $790.00 per week plus 12% commission on his sales. how much will he have to sale in order for the second job to pay him as much as the first job.

he has to make a sale of $750

Step-by-step explanation:

first job pays $880 per week

second job pays $790 per week

amount first job is paying more=$(880-790)

=$90

therefore,12% should $90 if he wants to make an equal amount as the first job is paying therefore,sale he has to do

12% of x=$90

12/100*x=$90

x=90*100/12

x=9000/12

x=$750

thus he has to make a sale of $750 to earn a 12% comission of $90
