Answer
Find out the fraction of the total sales did each salesperson sell .
To prove
As given
The two salespeople for a local advertising firm are Trinity and Jason.
Trinity sold $2030 in ads and Jason sold $1540.
Total sales = $2030 + $1540
= $ 3570
Now
[tex]Trinity\sales\ fraction = \frac{Trinity\ sales}{Total\ sales}[/tex]
put all the value in the above
[tex]Trinity\sales\ fraction = \frac{2030}{3570}[/tex]
simplify the aboves
[tex]Trinity\sales\ fraction = \frac{29}{51}[/tex]
[tex]Jason\sales\ fraction = \frac{Jason\ sales}{Total\ sales}[/tex]
put all the value in the above
[tex]Jason\sales\ fraction = \frac{1540}{3570}[/tex]
simplify the aboves
[tex]Jason\sales\ fraction = \frac{22}{51}[/tex]
Therefore the sales fraction are
[tex]Trinity\sales\ fraction = \frac{29}{51}[/tex]
[tex]Jason\sales\ fraction = \frac{22}{51}[/tex]
