    Tomás is a salesperson who earns a monthly salary of $2250 plus a 3% commission on the total amount of his sales. What were his sales last month if he earned a total of $4500?

    Let total sales be s. We're given the following earnings equation:
    0.03s + 2250 = 4500

    To solve for s, we type this equation into our search engine and we get:
    s = 75,000
