Step-by-step explanation:

Monica is a salesperson and she sale cars. Her commission for each car she sold is 2.5 % . Last month she sold 3 cars at the following price .

commission for Car 1 = 2.5/100 × 23000 = 57500/100 = $575

commission for Car 2 = 2.5/100 × 16000 = 40000/100 = $400

commission for Car 3 = 2.5/100 × 9500 = 23750/100 = $237.5

Total earning =  $575 + $400 + $237.5

Total earning for last month = $1212.50
