Question 995631: I have no idea what formula to use for this problem. Can someone help me work this problem please.
Christina is selling an antique dining room furniture set through a broker. She wants to get $1500 for herself, but the broker gets 15% of the selling price as commission. What should the selling price be? Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! She gets 1500 after the broker got 15%. Let's call the total x:
x-0.15x= 1500 subtract on left
0.85x= 1500
x= 1764.71
