उत्तर
Let x be the cash sales made by the agent.
∴ Commission on cash sales = 4% of cash sales
`= 4/100 xx x = "4x"/100`
Now, Credit sales = Total sales - Cash sales
∴ Credit sales = 51,000 – x
Commission on credit sales
= 6% of credit sales
`= 6/100 xx (51,000 - x)`
Total commission = Commission on cash sales + Commission on credit sales
∴ `2700 = (4x)/100 + 6/100 (51000 - x)`
∴ `2700 = (4x + 306000 - 6x)/100`
∴ 270000 = - 2x + 306000
∴ 2x = 306000 - 270000
∴ 2x = 36000
∴ x = ₹ 18000
∴ Cash sales is ₹ 18,000.
∴ Credit sales = 51,000 – 18,000 = ₹ 33,000
∴ Sales made by agent for cash is ₹ 18,000 and on credit is ₹ 33,000.

Mr. Pavan is paid a fixed weekly salary plus commission based on percentage of sales made by him. If on the sale of ₹68,000 and ₹73,000 in two successive weeks, he received in all ₹9880 and ₹10, 180. Complete the following activity to find his weekly salary and the rate of commission paid to him.
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%.
