A salesman commission is 5% on all sales upto Rs.10000 and
4% on all sales exceeding this .he remits rs.31,100 to his parent company after
deducting his commission .find the total sales
Let his total sales be x His commission would be = 5% of 10000 + 4% of (x-10000) = 500 + 4x/100 - 400 = 100 + 4x/100 = 100 + x/25
The amount he pays to company = x- (x/25 + 100) = x - x/25 - 100 = 24x/25 - 100 = 31100 24x/25 = 31200 x = (31200 * 25) / 24 = 32500 total sales = 32500
Let his total sales be x
ReplyDeleteHis commission would be
= 5% of 10000 + 4% of (x-10000)
= 500 + 4x/100 - 400
= 100 + 4x/100
= 100 + x/25
The amount he pays to company
= x- (x/25 + 100)
= x - x/25 - 100
= 24x/25 - 100 = 31100
24x/25 = 31200
x = (31200 * 25) / 24 = 32500
total sales = 32500
