She earns 80$ per week plus Commission which is a percent of her weekly sales this week Karen sold $500 and earned a total for the week of 120 determine the value of her commission as a percent
---------------------
For $500 sales she earned 120-80 = $40 of commission
----
% of commission = 40/500 = 4/50 = 0.08 = 8%
