An insurance agent works for a commission rate of 8.25% of sales. If his total sales for this month amounts to P 21 685, how much commission will he receive?

Sagot :

Multiply P 21,685 by 8.25%

P 21,685 x 8.25%(or simply 0.0825)=P 1,789.01

Hope this helps =)
the given problem is a rate commission:

solution:
                     rate =  8.25 %  "move the decimal point two places to the left"
                     commission   = 0.0825 x P 21 685
                                          = P 1 789.0125

⇒  P 1 789. 0125 is the total commission will he receive.
