Answer :

B. 7 percent

     I kind of did it backwards.  I took the amount $38642. and multiplied it by each of the answers.  The 7 percent is what gave me the $2704.94 amount. 

Answer:

Option B. will be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Last week total sales done by Rob Polanski as a tractor salesman was = $38642

He received amount as a commission = $2704.94

So the percentage of commission he received will be

= [tex]\frac{\text{Commission received}}{\text{Total sales}}\times 100[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2704.94}{38642}\times 100[/tex]

= 0.07×100

= 7%

Therefore, Option B. will be the answer.
