Answer 2

Answer:

The value of the goods sold = Rs. x

Commission @ 7.5% on first Rs.10,000

= Rs. 750

Commission @ 5% on the balance

Rs. (x-10,000) = $\frac{5}{100}$ × (x-10,000)

                       = Rs. $\frac{5 (x-10,000)}{100}$

An Agent remits Rs.33950 to his Principal

∴ x - 750 -  $\frac{5(x-10,000)}{100}$ = 33,950

$\frac{95x}{100}$ = 33950 + 250

$\frac{19x}{20}$ = 34,200

x = Rs. 36,000
