Sarosh receives 8% commission on the final price of clothing he sells.

A customer bought a $45 coat that was marked 20% off

=> 45 dollars *.20 = 9 dollars off.

=> 45 - 9 = 36 dollars is the new price

$95 suit that was marked 3 0% off.

=> 95 dollars *.30 = 28.5 dollars off

=> 95 dollars - 28.5 = 66.5 dollars

Total = 66.5 + 36 dollars = 102.5 dollars is the total amount

=> 102.5 * 0.08 = 8.2 dollars is her commission.
