For this case we can make the following rule of three:

100% -----------------> $ 1,580.00

20% -------------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

\(x = \frac {20} {100} 1580\\x = 316\)

From here, you get the amount that Earl earns in commissions.

Answer:

the amount of his paycheck is $ 316
