You are a sales account executive earning $1500 per month plus 6% commission on the amount of sales. Your goal is to earn a minimum of $5100 per month. What amount of sales will enable you to earn $5100 or more per month?

$60000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total income needed is $5,100.  Subtract the BASE pay of $1,500 to get the amount of commission needed to earn.  This would be $3,600.  The equation to solve for is:  $3,600 is 6% of X.     Take $3,600 and divide by .06 (or 6%).  This gives you the answer of $60,000.

To check your work, take $60,000 and multiply by 6%.  This will get you back to $3,600.  Add back the $1,500 and you have $5,100.  If you want to make more than $5,100, then increase your sales above $60,000.
