Mrs. Miller earns a commission of $10740 from selling the house.

Let x represent the amount of money Mrs. Miller makes from selling a house.

Since she earns a commission of 6%, hence:

x = 6% of price of house

x = 0.06 * price of house

Since the house sells for $179000, hence:

x = 0.06 price of house

x = 0.06 $179000

x = $10740

Therefore Mrs. Miller earns a commission of $10740 from selling the house.
