#$32000#

Explanation:

Well first let's write an equation for the sale/commission formula

You earn #8%# of a dollar for every dollar you make. So our equation is

#d xx 0.08 = c#

Now, given that we know your commission is #2560#, let's solve for the original sale (#d#)

#2560 = d xx 0.08#

#32000 = d#

So the original sale was for #$32000#
