Answer 1

Answer:

• 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate of commission is x%.

Total earning is:

• 7500 + 120000*x/100 = 13500
• 1200x = 13500 - 7500
• 1200x = 6000
• x = 6000/1200
• x = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the rate of the commission be x%

Now, according to the given problem

The total monthly earning is

$\frac{120000x}{100} + 7500 = 13500 \\ 1200x = 13500 - 7500 \\ 1200x = 6000 \\ x = \frac{6000}{1200} \\ \boxed{x = 5}$

Therefore, the rate of commission is 5%

• 5% is the right answer.
