a salesman has a basic salary of 4,500 pesos and a commission of 5% an all sales above 50,000 pesos .how much did he earn when his monthly sales mounted to 285,000 pesos.

Sagot :

Monthly basic salary = 4,500
Rate of Commission earned above 50,000 = 5% or 0.05
Sales = 285,000
x = Salesman's earnings

Equation:

x = [(285,000 - 50,000) × 0.05] + 4,500

x = [(235,000) × 0.05] + 4,500

x = (11,750) + 4,500

x = 16,250

ANSWER: The salesman earned Php 16,250 when his sales mounted to 285,000.
