If a sales person's commission is "k" percentage of the sale of a car, then what is the total commission for selling 2 cars totalling $28,000?
It is still k%
k% of 28,000
= $${\frac{{\mathtt{k}}}{{\mathtt{100}}}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{28\,000}}$$
= $${\mathtt{k}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{280}}$$
= $$280k$$ dollars
