Jake sold a total of $9,600 worth of clothing last week at his store. If his commission is 15% on sales, how much commission did he earn?

Jake earned $1,440 in commission.

Explanation:

Jake's commission is 15% of the amount he sells. To find the amount Jake has made in commission, we need to multiply the amount he sold, 9,600, by 15 and then divide it by 100.

9,600.15/100

=

144,000/100

=

1,440

Therefore, last week, Jake earned a total of $1,440, which is 15% of 9,600.
