Solution

To calculate John's total pay, we need to add his monthly salary to the commission he gets from the car sale.

Step 1: Calculate the commission from the car sale. The car is worth ₱1,000,000 and John gets a 12% commission on this. So, the commission is calculated as follows:

₱1,000,000 * 12/100 = ₱120,000

Step 2: Add the commission to his monthly salary. John's monthly salary is ₱18,000. So, his total pay is calculated as follows:

₱120,000 (commission) + ₱18,000 (salary) = ₱138,000

So, John's total pay is ₱138,000.
