Question 1134584: Jackson works at an appliance store and earns commission on his total sales for the week. His weekly paycheck was in the amount of 3,250 including his salary of $500. His sales for the week totaled $62,000. Express his rate of commission as a percent. Round to the nearest whole number.

Let rate of commission = r*100%
His paycheck of this week:
$500+$62000(r) = $3250
62000r = 2750
r = 0.0443548387
Rate of commission = r*100% = 4.43548387097%
= 4% (rounded to nearest whole number)
