Answer 1

Answer:

Given : After deducting a commission of 5%, a moped costs 15200 rupees.

To find: What is its gross value Solution :

let the gross value is X commission of 5% of X = 5x/100

Given moped cost = 15200 According to the question: => X - 5x/100 = 15200 => (100x - 5x)/100 = 15,200 => 95x/100 = 15200 => 95x = 1520000 => X = 1520000/95 => X = 16,000

The gross value is Rs 16000

verified --

deducting 5% of commission = 16000x5/100 = 800 = 16000 800 = 15200.

Hence gross value = 16,000. %3D
