We will use the following  formula to work out the confidence interval

Upper limit = μ + z* (σ/√n)
Lower limit = μ - z* (σ/√n)

We have
μ = 79.3
σ = 7.8
n = 12
z* is the z-score for 95% confidence level = 1.96

Substitute these into the formula, we have

Upper limit = 79.3 + 1.96 (7.8/√12) = 83.7
Lower limit = 79.3 - 1.96 )7.8/√12) = 74.9

\\
\text{Let Manas receives a commission of Rs. 5000 on sales of Rs. 65000}\\
\\
\text{We need to find how much commision he will get on the sale of Rs.20000}\\
\\
\text{To find the commision, we use the unitary method.}\\
\\
\text{On sales of Rs. 65000, Manas receives a commision of}=5000\\
\\
\text{so on sales of Rs. 1, Manas will receiv a commision of}=\frac{5000}{65000}\\
\\
\text{Hence on sales of Rs. 20000, Manas will receiv a commision of}\\
\\=\frac{5000}{65000}\times 20000\\
