Question

John is a salesman at a pizza hut. He earns $20\%$ commission on his total sales. What would be his commission, if he sold $1200$ rupees pizza?

• A. $120$
• B. $240$
• C. $360$
• D. $250$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $240$

Commission $=$ Amount of sales $\times$ Rate of commission
Rate of commission $=20\%=0.2$
Amount of sales $=1200$ rupees
Substitute the values, we get
Commission $=1200\times 0.2$
$=240$ rupees
