first we need to find 2% of 35,000
2% equals 0.02 so we'll multiply 35,000 by 0.02
35,000Â Ă— 0.02 = 700
for every car he sells jack gets $700
now we need to divide that into 5,000
5,000Â Ă· 700 = 7.14
now since you cannot sell 0.14 of a car you need to round up
he needs to sell 8 cars to meet his target income
