Question

after deducting a commission of 5% a moped costs rupees 15200. what is its gross value

Answer 1

let the gross value is X

commission of 5% of X = 5x/100

given moped cost = 15200

X - 5x/100 = 15200

100x - 5x /100 = 15,200

95x/100 = 15200

95x = 1520000

X = 1520000/95

X = 16,000

verified --

deducting 5% of commission

= 16000x5/100 = 800

= 16000 - 800 = 15200.

hence gross value = 16,000.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

X- 5x/100 =15200

100x-5x/100=15200

95x/100=15200

95x=1520000

x=1520000/95

x=16000.
