उत्तर

Let the cash sales made by agent be x

Total sales of agent is ₹ 1,02,000

∴ Credit sales = 1,02,000 – x

Rate of commission on cash sales = 7%

Rate of commission on credit sales = 5%

∴ Total commission earned = Commission on cash sales + Commission on credit sales

∴ 6420 = `x xx 7/100 + (102000 - x) xx 5/100`

∴ `6420 = (7x)/100 + (510000 - 5x)/100`

∴ `6420 = (7x  +  510000  -  5x)/100`

∴ `6420 xx 100` = 2x + 510000

∴ 642000 = 2x + 510000

∴ 2x = 642000 - 510000

∴ 2x = 132000

∴ x = 66000

∴ Cash sales = ₹ 66000

Credit sales = 102000 - x

= 102000 - 66000

= ₹ 36000

∴ Cash sales made by agent is ₹ 66,000 and credit sales is ₹ 36,000.

An agent sold a car and charged 3% commission on sale value. If the owner of the car received ₹ 48,500, find the sale value of the car. If the agent charged 2% from the buyer, find his total remuneration


Three cars were sold through an agent for ₹ 2,40,000, ₹ 2,22,000 and ₹ 2,25,000 respectively. The rates of commission were 17.5% on the first, 12.5% on the second. If the agent overall received 14% commission on the total sales, find the rate of commission paid on the third car.

Solution: Total selling Price of three cars = 2,40,000 + 2,22,000 + 2,25,000

= `square`

Commision on total sale = 14%

= `14/100 xx square`

Selling price of First car = ₹ 2,40,000

Rate of commission = 17.5% 

= `17.5/100 xx 2,40,000 = square`

∴ Commission on first car = ₹ `square`

Selling price of Second car = ₹ 2,22,000

Rate of commission = 12.5%

= `12.5/100 xx 2,22,000 = square`

∴ Commission on second car = ₹ `square`

Selling price of third car = ₹ 2,25,000

Let the rate of commission be x

Commission on third car = `x/100 xx 2,25,000`

∴ Commission on third car = Total commission − (commission on first car + commission on second car)

∴ `x/100 xx 2,25,000 = square - {square + square}`

∴ x = `square`
