Activity: Calculate the Commission
Lyndsay earns a 4% commission for selling computers. One weekend, she sold 2 at $2200.00 each and 3 at $2600.00 each
To calculate Lyndsay's commission, we first need to find the total sales for the weekend.
For the 2 computers sold at $2200.00 each:
2 computers x $2200.00 = $4400.00
For the 3 computers sold at $2600.00 each:
3 computers x $2600.00 = $7800.00
Total sales for the weekend:
$4400.00 + $7800.00 = $12200.00
Next, we calculate Lyndsay's commission on the total sales:
4% commission x $12200.00 = $488.00
Lyndsay earned a commission of $488.00 for selling computers that weekend.
