Myles · Answer 1

(380-100).15 (+280)

first to find the commission you have to subtract the guaranteed payment, and then to find commission multiply by. 15, subtract that number from 280 (sales without commission) (280 from 380-100) and that is the amount he made from sales (answer: 322 from sales)
