Question

Ranjan gets a commission of rupees 840 for selling 6 scooters how many scooter should he sell to get a commission of rupees 1820

Answer 1

Given,

Ranjan gets a commision of ₹ 840 after selling 6 scooters.

Hence,

Commision for selling 6 scooters = ₹ 840
Commision for selling 1 scooter = 840 / 6
Commision for selling 1 scooter = ₹ 140

Therefore,

Let the required number of scooters be ' x '.

So on reading the question carefully we can easily derive the following equation,

140 * x = 1820
=> x = 1820 / 140
=> x = 13

The required number of scooters = 13

Answer 2

Cost Of One Scooter = 840/6 = 140
Cost Of “x” Scooters = 1820/x
140=1820/x
x=1820/140
x=13

Number Of Scooters = 13
