Answer 2

Answer:

Robert earned $540

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

• Roberts earns 30% commissions.
• He sold $1800.

To know the amount of money he earned, we just have to find the 30% of 1800. So, we'll express the percentage in a fraction to then multiply it with 1800:

$\frac{30}{100}1800=540$

Therefore, Robert earned $540, which represents the 30% commissions of $1800.
