If you work for a company that offers a 10% commission on sales, how much product would you have to sell in order to receive $175 commissions? **Total sales you need to get 175 commissions in dollors

8.75

how-to:

first, we need to find what we have to work with.

since i know that we have 7 (years) and 0.8 (inches), we can use these to solve and find the equation!

secondly, what you want to do, is see that we need to know how much growth out of the 0.8 inches he got in only 1 year, instead of 7 years.

let's try to divide.

7 ÷ 0.8 = 8.75

3boys + 4 girls = 7 students

3 boys to students   true   yes

4 girls to 3 boy   true     yes

3 boys to 7 girls   false   no

4 girls to 7 students   true   yes
