Question 898234: Mark works strictly on commission of his gross sales from selling two different products of his company. Last month, his gross sales were $91,000. If he earns 4% commission on product A and 3% commission on product B, what were his gross sales for each product if he earned $3,400 in total commission?

.04x + .03(91000-x) = 3400
.04x + 2730 - .03x = 3400
x = (3400-2730)/.01= $67,000, Sales at 4%
($91,000-$6700) Sales at 3%
