she earned 21000.
18000 of it was her salary.
that leaves 3000 commission.
3000/.12 = 25000.
she made sales of 25000.
the formula for her pay would be pay = 18000 + .12 * sales
if sales is 25000, then formula for pay becomes:
pay = 18000 + .12 * 25000
simplify to get:
pay = 18000 + 3000
combine like terms to get:
pay = 21000
