Question

Sudha gets salary of $Rs.1500$ per months and commission at $8$% on the sales over $Rs.10,000$.If she gets $Rs.4500$ in a certain month, find the sales made by her in that month.

• A. Rs $37000$
• B. Rs $32500$
• C. Rs $37500$
• D. Rs $57500$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Rs $37500$

Given that:

Sudha's commission $4500-1500=Rs.3000$

Sudha gets $Rs.800$ for the sales of $Rs.10,000$

$Rs.3000=\frac{15}{4}\times 800$

Hence,

The total sale $=\frac{15}{4}\times 10000=Rs.37500$
