Total sales were $4659.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Commission = 11%
Amount of commission = $512.50
Let,
total sales = x
Therefore,
11% of x = 512.50
[tex]\frac{11}{100}x=512.50\\0.11x=512.50[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 0.11
[tex]\frac{0.11x}{0.11}=\frac{512.50}{0.11}\\x= $4659.1[/tex]
Total sales were $4659.1
