He sells 2 suits that are $700.00 each for a total of 2 * 700 = $1,400.00. He sells 6 shirts that are $50.00 each for a total of 6 * 50 = $300.00. He sells 2 pairs of loafers that are $150.00 each for a total of 2 * 150 = $300.00. All total he sells 1400 + 300 + 300 = $2,000.00 worth of clothing. He gets a 15% commission off of the the $2,000.00 so he earns .15 * 2000 = $300.00. So, the answer is 300.
