प्रश्न

A real estate agent receives Rs 50,000 as commission, which is 4% of the selling price. At what price does the agent sell the property?

योग

उत्तर

Given, commission received = 50,000

Also, commission percentage = 4%

Need to find out the price of the property

Let the price of the property = Rs. y

⇒ Now, x% of `n = x/100 xx n`

⇒ `4/100 xx y = 50000`

⇒ `y = (50000 xx 100)/4`

⇒ y = 50000 × 25 = Rs. 1250000

Hence, the selling price of the property is Rs. 1250000
