Question

a property dealer charges a commission of 2% of the first rupees 25000 and 1.5 % of the remainder. What Commission does he charge for selling a plot of land for rupees 130000 ?​

Answer 1

Answer: 2075 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that he charges 2% for the first 25000. 2% of 25000 is 500. He then charges 1.5% of the remainder. I can then subtract 25000 from 130000 which will give me 105000. Hence, 105000 is the remainder, and 1.5% of it will be 1575. I can now add 500 to 1575, which will make 2075.

Hope this helps!
