Okay. So, Kedar earns a monthly salary of $2,200 per month. That stays the same. He earns a 3.75% monthly commission on how much he sells. To find out how much his commission would be if he sold $4,500 in clothing, we would have to multiply 4,500 by 3.75% (0.0375). When you multiply both numbers, you get $168.75 in commission sales. Now, you must add that plus 2,200. When you add both of those numbers, you get 2,368.75. Kedar would earn $2,368.75 this month if he sold $4,500 worth of clothes.
