An agent receives a weekly salary of P3,200 plus 15% of his total sales. If for a given week he got P5,450, how much was his total sales?
\n" ); document.write( "This is the formula I found in my book (although I have it, I still don't know how to solve it):
\n" ); document.write( "Commission (C) = Rate (R) x Total Sales
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Total Earnings = 3200 + 0.15*sales
\n" ); document.write( "5450 = 3200 + 0.15*S
\n" ); document.write( "2350 = 0.15*S
\n" ); document.write( "S = 2350/0.15
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: Total sales = $15666.67
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
