A sales person earns a commission equal to 8% of the price of any piece of furniture she sells she sells a bed for $593 what will be the amount of her commission

Her comission for that sale was $47.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she sold the bed for $ 593 we need to find how much is 8 % of that in order to know the amount of her comission. We can calculate that in two ways, the first one would be using a rule of 3 where 593 is to 100% as x is to 8 %, this method can be seen bellow:

593 -> 100%

x -> 8%

x = (593*8)/100 = $47.44

Or we can transform 8 % to decimal and multiplying it to the total amount of the sale, we convert the percentage to decimal by dividing it by 100. So we have:

p = 8%/100 = 0.08

x = 593*0.08 = $47.44

Her comission for that sale was $47.44

the monthly balance will be $75,000
