Daniel works at a nearby electronics store. He makes a commission of 15%, percent on everything he sells. If he sells a laptop for $293.00, how much money does Daniel make in commission?

Daniel's commission is $43.95

Explanation:

Since Daniel makes a commission of 15% on everything he sells, and he sells a laptop for 293, we have to find 15% of 293. 15% is equal to 0.15. Because "of" usually means to multiply, we do 0.15 x 293, which gives us 43.95. Therefore, his commission is $43.95
