To calculate your commission, you need to first find the total cost of the food sold:
3 lobsters at $15.20 each = $45.60
5 steaks at $14.50 each = $72.50
Total cost = $45.60 + $72.50 = $118.10
Your commission is 15% of the total cost:
Commission = 0.15 x $118.10 = $17.72
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, your commission would be $17.72.
