A commission is a fee paid to a person who makes a sale. It is usually a percent of the selling price. This percent is called the commission rate. commission ratesales = commission
Additional Example 1: Multiplying by Percents to Find Commission Amounts A real-estate agent is paid a monthly salary of $900 plus commission. Last month he sold one condominium for $65,000, earning a 4% commission on the sale. How much was his commission? What was his total pay last month? First find his commission. 4% $65,000 = ccommission rate sales = commission 0.04 65,000 = cChange the percent to a decimal. 2600 = cSolve for c.
Additional Example 1 Continued A real-estate agent is paid a monthly salary of $900 plus commission. Last month he sold one condominium for $65,000, earning a 4% commission on the sale. How much was his commission? What was his total pay last month? He earned a commission of $2600 on the sale.

CD: 2 at $16.99 $33.98 DVD: 1 at $36.29 $36.29 Additional Example 2: Multiplying by Percents to Find Sales Tax Amounts If the sales tax rate is 6.75%, how much tax would Adrian pay if he bought two CDs at $16.99 each and one DVD for $36.29? $70.27 Total Price 0.0675 70.27 = 4.743225 Write the tax rate as a decimal and multiply by the total price. Adrian would pay $4.74 in sales tax.
114.75 n = 1500 100 Additional Example 3: Using Proportions to Find the Percent of Earnings Anna earns $1500 monthly. Of that, $114.75 is withheld for Social Security and Medicare. What percent of Anna’s earnings are withheld for Social Security and Medicare? Think: What percent of $1500 is $114.75? Set up a proportion. n 1500 = 100 114.75 Find the cross products. 1500n = 11,475 Simplify.
11,475 n = 1500 Additional Example 3 Continued Anna earns $1500 monthly. Of that, $114.75 is withheld for Social Security and Medicare. What percent of Anna’s earnings are withheld for Social Security and Medicare? Divide both sides by 1500 n = 7.65 Simplify. 7.65% of Anna’s earnings is withheld for Social Security and Medicare.
Additional Example 4A: Finding Profit and Total Sales A furniture store earns 30% profit on all sales. If total sales are $2790, what is the profit? Think: What is 30% of 2790? x = 0.30 2790 Set up an equation. x = 837 Multiply. The profit is $837.
= Divide each side by 0.30. 10,044 0.30s 0.30 0.30 Additional Example 4B: Finding Profit and Total Sales A furniture store earns 30% profit on all sales. If the store earns $10,044, how much are the total sales? Think: 10,044 is 30% of what number? Let s = total sales 10,044 = 0.30 sSet up an equation. Simplify. 33,480 = s The total sales are $33,480.
