Alonzo earns 8% commission on vacuum cleaner sales. This past month, Alonzo sold 70 units at $150.00 each. How much did Alonzo make in commissions for the past month? Explain how you found your answer.

$840

Step-by-step explanation:

if alonzo has sold 70 units at 150.00 each, you would multiply the 2 values which would equal- $10,500.

that's the total, but to find the commission you would have to multiply the decimal(percent) by the total, which would give you $840.

(70)(150.00) = 10500- total vaccum cleaner sales

8% -> .08, because you will move the decimal 2 places to the left.

(10500)(.08) =840- Alonso's percentage of sales

answer: $201

step-by-step explanation: to get the answer, you first get 3 nieces that he sold and multiply it by 67 and get $201, so he earned $201 selling his nieces.
