Namarachi earns a base pay of $2,200 per month. She also earns commission of 4% of her total sales. One month Namarachi earned $2,400. Explain how to find Namarachi’s total sales for that month. How much were her total sales?

$5000

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the amount earned as commission, we deduct the fixed pay from the total earned pay. Given the total monthly earnings as $2400 while fixed pay of $2200, in this case, the amount of commission will be

Commission= 2400-2200=200

Since the commission is 4% of the total sales, then the total sales equivalent to 100% is given by cross multiplication

If4%=$200

100%=?

Total sales will be 100%*$200/4%=$5000
