salesman but if the salesman is appointed on a fix salary of Rs. 10000 and 6% commission on the sales more than 30000. If in second condition the salesman receives 2400 more than the first condition. Find the total sales?Solution
Let the total sales be x 1st Condition Salesman gets = x × 8% 2nd Condition Salesman gets = 10000 + (x - 30000) × 6% The difference of 2nd and 1st condition is 2400 Therefore, 10000 + (x - 30000) × 6/100 – x × 8/100 = 2400 10000 + 6x/100 – 1800 - 8x/100 = 2400 10000 – 1800 – 2400 = 8x/100 - 6x/100 5800 = 2x/100 x = 290000
