Given:
Betty's monthly salary = $1770
Commision on sales = 14%
Betty sales for last month = $99,200
1. The amount of commission is 14% of $99,200.
Therefore, we have:
[tex]\frac{14}{100}\times99200=0.14\times99200=\text{ \$13888}[/tex]The amount of commission is $13,888
2. The gross pay.
Gross pay is the amount Betty receives before taxes and deductions.
Gross pay = Salary + Commission
Thus, the gross pay is:
$13888 + $1770 = $15,658
ANSWER:
1. Commission = $13,888
2. Gross pay = $15,658
