Answer:

He must sell 20,000 to make the same amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A

25 h   where hourly rate time number of hours ( 40 hours)

25 * 40 = 1000

Option B =

.05 * s  where s is the amount of sales and 5% commission

We want them to be equal

1000 = .05s

Divide each side by .05

1000/.05 = .05s/.05

20000 = s

He must sell 20,000 to make the same amount
