If a real estate agent received a commission of 6 percent of the selling price of a certain house what was the selling price of the house1 The selling price minus the real estate agent’s commission wa

Let x be the selling price of the house. The real estate agent's commission would be 0.06x. Therefore, we have:

(1) x - 0.06x = 84,600 0.94x = 84,600 x = 90,000

Statement (1) alone is sufficient.

(2) x = 2.5(36,000) x = 90,000

Statement (2) alone is also sufficient.

Therefore, the answer is (D) EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
