<PRE><B>Question 956411</B>
Jonathon and Raymond earn a base salary plus commission. Jonathon earns $1500 plus 10% of his sales each month. Raymond earns $1200 plus 15% of his sales each month. How much will Jonathon and Raymond need to sell in order to earn the same amount each month?
---
Jonathan 1500 + 0.1x
Raymond 1200 + 0.15x
------
Solve:: 1500+0.10x = 1200 + 0.15x
300 = 0.05x
x = 30000/5 = $6000
