Alyson earned $40 in commission from her sales. How much did she sell if her commission rate is 15%?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the merchandise she sold = x

Her commission is 15% of that, so 15% of x or 0.15x

We know her commission was $40, so 0.15x = $40

0.15x = $40

Divide by 0.15

x = $266.67

We can check our answer by substituting $266.67 back into the equation.

0.15(266.67) = 40

40 = 40 ✅

Alyson sold $266.67 worth of merchandise.
