Answer:
The broker's commission was rupees 8,250
Step-by-step explanation:
Selling price of property = rupees 450,000
The sale price is higher than rupees 300,000
Commission for rupees 300,000 = 2% × rupees 300,000 = rupees 6,000
Remaining amount = rupees 450,000 - rupees 300,000 = rupees 150,000
Commission for the remaining amount = 1.5% × rupees 150,000 = 0.015 × rupees 150,000 = rupees 2,250
Total commission = rupees 6,000 + rupees 2,250 = rupees 8,250
