Solution

A salesman receives 3% commission on the sales up to ₹ 50,000 and 4% commission on the sales over ₹ 50,000. His total income on the sale of ₹ 2,00,000 is ₹ 7,500.

Explanation -

Salesman earns 3% commission on the sales upto  ₹ 50,000 and 4% commission on the sales over ₹ 50,000.

His total sales is ₹ 2,00,000.

Commission on sales upto ₹ 50,000

`= 50,000 xx 3/100`

= ₹ 1,500

Commission on sales over ₹ 50,000

`= (2,00,000 - 50,000) xx 4/100`

`= 1,50,000 xx 4/100`

= ₹ 6,000

Total commission = 1,500 + 6,000 = ₹ 7,500

Total income on the sale of ₹ 2,00,000 is ₹ 7,500.
