Cevap

$620\$620
To find the total gross pay, you must first determine the commission earned by multiplying the total sales by the commission rate. 4%4\% of $3,000\$3,000 is $120\$120. Next, add this commission to the base salary. $500+$120=$620\$500 + \$120 = \$620. Therefore, the salesperson's total gross pay is $620\$620.
