13. a meat vendor receives 3% commission for his total sales. if he received ₱600.00. what was his total sales? a. ₱350.00 b. ₱400.00 c. ₱450.00 d. ₱20000.00

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Set up the commission - sales formula

Let the total sales be $x$. The commission rate is $3%=0.03$, and the commission received is $600$. The formula for commission $C$ is $C = 0.03x$.

Step2: Solve for $x$

We have the equation $600 = 0.03x$. To find $x$, we divide both sides of the equation by $0.03$. So, $x=\frac{600}{0.03}=20000$.

Answer:

d. ₱20000.00
