उत्तर

Let sale value of the car be ₹ x.

Since, agent charged 3% commission on the sale value

∴ Agent's commission from seller = 3% of sale value

= 3% of x = `3/100 xx x`

`= (3x)/100`

Amount received by the owner = Sale value of the car - Agent's commission

∴ `48500 = x - "3x"/100`

∴ `48500 = (97x)/100`

∴ x = `(48500 xx 100)/97`

∴ x = ₹ 50,000

∴ Sale value of the car is ₹ 50,000.

∴ Agent's commission from seller = 3% of sale value

∴ 3% of ₹ 50,000

`= (3 xx 50,000)/100`

= ₹ 1,500

Also, he charged 2% commission to the buyer.

∴ Agent's commission from buyer = 2% of sale value

= 2% of ₹ 50,000

`= 2/100 xx 50,000`

= ₹ 1000

∴ Agent's total remuneration = Commission from seller + Commission from buyer

= 1,500 + 1,000 = ₹ 2,500

∴ Sale value of car is ₹ 50,000 and total remuneration of the agent is ₹ 2,500.
