    The net sales is $6,000

    Explanation:

    5% of the net sales = $300

    The net sale can be calculated by,

    The net sales is x.

    5% of x is $300.

    Find x.

    5x/100=$300

    Cross multiply.

    5x=$30000

    Then divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 5

    Which leads to $30000/5

    X=$6000.

    Therefore, the net spend is $6,000.
