Question

After deducting a commission of 5 per cent a moped costs RS 15200 what is its gross value

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the gross value be x

Commision 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

hence ,verified

deducting 5% of commision

16000×5/100

16000-800=15200

hence gross value = 16000
