Question

Rafique sold flowers worth 15,000 by giving 4% commission to the agent.
Find the commission he paid. Find the amount received by Rafique.​

Answer 1

Selling price of the flowers = 15,000

Commission rate = 4%

Commission paid to the agent = 4% of 15,000 = 4/100 * 15,000 = 600

So, the commission paid by rafique is Rs 600

therefore amount received by rafique = selling price of the flowers - commission paid to the agent

= 15,000 - 600 = 14,400

Thus the amount received by rafique is Rs 14,400.

Answer 2

Answer:

Given:

Selling Price = Rs 15000

Commission rate = 4%

By using the formula,

Commission = Commission Rate × Selling Price

Commission = (4/100) × 15000

= Rs 600

Rafique paid a commission of Rs 600.

Amount received by Rafique = Selling Price – Commission

Amount received = 15000 – 600

= Rs 14400

∴ The amount received by Rafique is Rs 14400.
