Octavio is a salesman at a car dealership and receives a 6% commission for each car he sales. What is the price of the car if the commission he earned on selling it was $900?

Respuesta :

Let the price of the car be represented by = x

Commission rate of Octavio = 6 %

Commission earned on selling a car at $x = $900

So, equation becomes =

[tex]\frac{6}{100}*x=900[/tex]

[tex]6x=90000[/tex]

[tex]x=15000[/tex]

Hence, the price of the car is $15000.
