Answer:

His total, needs to be $6000 to reach his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he receives a basic salary of $800 per month, he need an extra $1200 to reach his goal of $2000 in that month. Since he receives 20% of all sales in the month he needs to make a sales of $6000 to receive a commission of $1200 to reach his goal of $2000 in that month.

Let the total sales be $x

Calculation; 20/100 * x= 1200

0.2x= 1200

X= 1200/0.2

X= $6000
