Additional comment

Many calculators and all spreadsheets can work with percentages directly. If yours can't, or if you can't do this arithmetic mentally, you can use the equivalent decimal or fraction for 5%.

  5% = 5/100 = 0.05 = 1/20

Then 5% × $640 = $640/20 = $64/2 = $32.

Answer:

It $32

$540x.05=$27

21.60!

Step-by-step explanation:

            it just a tip

Heidi made $32 from The commission, And the store made $513 (i had this question myself on Savvas)

it just a tip

1. 540x0.05=503

2. 540-37= $513

So the store made 513 dollars and Heidi made 27 dollars

5% = 5/100 = 0.05 = 1/20

Then 5% × $640 = $640/20 = $64/2 = $32.

5% × $640 = $32
