To earn $3000, the amount of sales needed can be calculated using the formula:
Total earnings = Fixed salary + Commission from sales
Given: Fixed salary = 3000
Let x be the amount of sales needed.
Commission from sales = (1/6) * x
Total earnings = Fixed salary + Commission from sales 500 + (1/6) * x
Now, we solve for x:
500 = (1/6) * x
$2500 = (1/6) * x
To isolate x, we multiply both sides by 6:
6 * $2500 = x
x = $15,000
Therefore, you must sell 3000.
