Real Estate Math

A Nevada listing agreement calls for a 6% commission on a $275,000 sale. The listing broker and selling broker split the commission 50/50. How much does each broker receive?

A$6,600
B$8,250✓ Correct
C$16,500
D$9,900

Explanation

Total commission = 6% x $275,000 = $16,500. Each broker receives $16,500 / 2 = $8,250. To solve this, multiply the relevant values: $275,000 at 6%.. The correct answer is $8,250.. This is a common calculation on the Nevada real estate exam.
