Answer:

$1,200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = sales

Since he gets 3% of a sale, we multiply x by 0.03

24,000 + 0.03x = 60,000

Subtract 24,000 from both sides

24,000 + 0.03x = 60,000

- 24,000            - 24,000

0.03x = 36,0000

Divide both sides by 0.03

0.03x/0.03 = 36,0000/0.03

x = 1,200,000
