Sarosh receives 8% commission on the final price of the clothing he sells. A customer bought a $45.00 coat that was marked 20% off and a $95.00 suit that was marked 30% off. What would Sarosh's commission be on that customer's purchase?

You must find the discounted price of both items:

20% of $45 is $9.  Subtract 9 from 45 to get $36 as the final price of the coat.

30% of $95 is $28.50.  Subtract 28.50 from 95 to get $66.50 as the final price of the suit.

To find the commission Sarosh earns, first add the final prices of the items together:
36+66.50= $102.50

Now take 8% of the total price:
0.08 x 102.50= $8.20

Sarosh earned $8.20 commission on the purchase.

Answer:

1) 20% of $45 is $9

$9 - $45 = $36 total cost of coat

2) 30% of $95 is $28.50

$28.50 - 95 = $66.50 total cost of suit

3) $36 + $66.50 = $102.50 sarosh earn

4) 102.50 * 0.08 = $ 8.20

final answer is $ 8.20
