Aaron works part time as a salesperson for an electronics store. he earns $6.75 per hour plus a percent commission on all of his sales. last week aaron worked 17 hours and earned a gross income of $290.63. find aaron’s percent commission if his total sales for the week were $3,350. if necessary, round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

First, find out how Aaron earned from the hours he worked plus the commission(c):
6.75 x 17 + c = 290.63
114.75 + c =290.63
Now we can work out c:
c = 290.63 - 114.75 = 175.88.
Aaron's commission is calculated as a percentage(p) of sales:
3350 x p/100 = 175.88
Multiply both sides by 100:
3350 x p = 17588
Now we can calculate p by dividing both sides by 3350:
p = 17588/3350 = 5.25%

If you make you answer for clear i can answer it : )
