Sarosh receives 8% commission on the final price of the clothing he sells. a customer bought a $45.00 coat that was marked 20% off and a $95.00 suit that was marked 30% off. what would sarosh's commission be on that customer's purchase?

You must find the discounted price of both items:

20% of $45 is $9.  Subtract 9 from 45 to get $36 as the final price of the coat.

30% of $95 is $28.50.  Subtract 28.50 from 95 to get $66.50 as the final price of the suit.

To find the commission Sarosh earns, first add the final prices of the items together:
36+66.50= $102.50

Now take 8% of the total price:
0.08 x 102.50= $8.20

Sarosh earned $8.20 commission on the purchase.

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
