Ryan a consumer electronics salesperson, earns a base salary of $1700 per month and a commission of 8% on the amount of sales he makes. one month ryan received a $2244 paycheck. find the amount of his sales for the month

This is the concept of algebra, let the total amount of sales be x:
Total income=[base salary]+[commissions]
base salary=$1700
commissions=8/100×x=0.08x
hence:
2240=0.08x+1700
solving for x we get:
540=0.08
x=540/0.08
x=$6750
We conclude that the total sales was $6750 

Okay i already have it though

29. because you will divide each number of months by 12 to find the number of years. which would mean, 5, 12.5, 16, 45, 50, 72.5. which is crazy. anyhow, i think you find the median in the middle. and yea hope your test goes good
