Take the amount the home sold for and multiply by 4.5%
67000*0.045 = 3015
He made $3,015
(thats a cheap house!) or agents make like $12,000 per sale!

percent is any number out of 100.
so 4.5 over 100 = x over 67,000.
cross multiply:100x = 4.5 * 67,000
this works for all percentages and you can figure out your test scores in percent with the same formula. good luck
