उत्तर

Agent earns commission at 12% on the sales.

∴ Commission to agent = Sales × Rate of commission

`= 48000 xx 12/100`

= ₹ 5760

Net amount received by seller
= Sales – Commission
= 48,000 – 5,760
= ₹ 42,240

∴ Salesman earns ₹ 5,760 as commission and amount received by seller is ₹ 42240.

Solution: Income of Mr. Pavan = Weekly salary + Commission on sales

Salary + Commission on ₹68,000 = ₹9880      ... (1)

Salary+ Commission on ₹73,000 = ₹10,180     ... (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

Commission on ₹5000 = ₹ `square`

∴ the rate of commission = `square/5000 xx 100` = 6%

Commission on ₹68,000 at 6% = ₹`68000 xx6/100 = square`

From (1) and (3), we get Salary = ₹(9880 - 4080) = `square`

Hence, fixed weekly salary is ₹5800 and the rate of commission is 6%.
