Question

A property dealer charges commission of 3 % on 1st Rs. 20000 and 2% on the remaining selling price. find the commission if a house is sold for Rs. 60000.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total commission - Rs 600 + Rs 800 = Rs 1,400/-

Step-by-step explanation:

House is sold for Rs 60,000

Commission for 1st 20,000 = 3%

ie 20,000 x $\frac{3}{100}$ = 60000/100 = Rs 600

Balance amount - Rs 60,000 - Rs 20,000 = Rs 40,000

Its given that commission for Rs 40,000 is 2%

ie 40,000 x $\frac{2}{100}$ = 80,000/100 = Rs 800

Total commission - Rs 600 + Rs 800 = Rs 1,400/-
