A salesman's commission is 10% on all sales upto Rs. 15000 and 5% on all sales exceeding this. He remits Rs. 32550 to his parent company after deducting his commission. Find the total sales?

33006

33060

33360

33600

Explanation:

Let his total sales be Rs. x.
Now, (total sales) - (commission) = Rs. 32550
x - [10% of 15000 + 5% of (x - 15000)] = 32550
x - [10/100 ×15000 + 5/100 (x - 15000) = 32550
x- 1500 - (x-15000)/20 = 32550
x - x/20 = 34800
19x/20 = 34800
x = 34800×19/20
x = Rs. 33060
Total sales = Rs. 33060
