Question

a agent sold carpet at the rate of RS 4500 each and received 9000 as a commission at 10 %. find the number of carpet he sold.​

Answer 1

comission = 9009

commission is 10% (of sale value assumed)

total sale value x 10% = 9000

total sale value = 9000*100/10

total sale value = 90000

cost of one carpet = 4500

number of carpets sold = 90000/4500

= 20

Answer 2

Answer:

he sold 20 carpets

Step by step explanation:

let n be the no. of carpets and x be the total amount received by the seller

agents commission=10/100 × x

9000=10x/100

900000=10x

x=90000₹

total amount =no. of carpets × price of one carpet

90000=n×4500

90000=4500n

n=90000/4500

n=20
