Given:

Total earnings: $360,000

Commission: 4%

Determine how much was the commission:

Solution:

In order to determine the  commission since we are given a percentage we must convert it first into a decimal. In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.

= 4 /100

= 0.04

Now we multiply 0.04 with the total earnings.

=($360,000)(0.04)

= $14,400

Final answer:

The total commission earned is $14,400.
