tangare [24]

$\\
\text{Let Manas receives a commission of Rs. 5000 on sales of Rs. 65000}\\
\\
\text{We need to find how much commision he will get on the sale of Rs.20000}\\
\\
\text{To find the commision, we use the unitary method.}\\
\\
\text{On sales of Rs. 65000, Manas receives a commision of}=5000\\
\\
\text{so on sales of Rs. 1, Manas will receiv a commision of}=\frac{5000}{65000}\\
\\
\text{Hence on sales of Rs. 20000, Manas will receiv a commision of}\\
\\=\frac{5000}{65000}\times 20000\\
\\
=1538.46$

Hence, on the sales of Rs. 20000, Manas will receive a commission of: Rs. 1538.46
