Solution:
Let x be the total sales & y be the total commission.
Then according to the given conditions,
0.06*15000 + 0.04 (x - 15000) = y .........E1
& 30000 + y = x .........E2
On simplifying E1, we have
900 + 0.04x - 600 = y
Therefore, y - 0.04x = 300 .........E3
On simplifying E2, we have
x - y = 30000 .........E4
To solve this, adding E3 & E4, we get
0.96x = 30300
Therefore, x = 31562.5
Hence, the total sales is ₹31562.50/-
