A car salesperson works 40 hours per week at a job where he has two options for being paid. Option A is an hourly wage of $16. Option B is a commission rate on weekly sales, and he averages $6400 in sales each week. What commission rate does he need to have to earn the same amount with the two options?
since he works 40 hours per week and gets $16 an hour, that would be 16 * 40 which is 640, so that means he needs a commission rate of 10% as 10% of 6400 is 640.
