NOTE: Commission = (x%)*Revenues;
Sales Commission = (x%)*(Sales Revenues). Therefore, C = (x%)*R
Question: Jr > Dr?
1) Jc = 1.2*Dc
2) Jc = 0.08*Jr & Dc = 0.06Dr

1+2) Jc = 1.2*Dc
=> 0.08*Jr = 1.2*0.06*Dr
=> 8*Jr = 1.2*6*Dr
=> Jr = (7.2/8)*Dr | 72/80 = 9/10 = 0.9
=> Jr = 0.9*Dr
=> Jr < Dr | Answer C.
