Answer:

air conditioner cost a total of $ 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mr. Fuller won 5% of the sale and the sale and that equals $ 125, we can develop an equation that represents the same

x =  air conditioner cost

5% = 5/100

5/100 * x = $125

now that we have the equation we just have to solve for the air conditioner  value (x)

5/100 * x = $125

x = $125 / (5/100)

x = $125 / 0.05

x = $2500
