Let x be the operating a commission costs the year before

x * 1.1 = 550m

x = 500m

550m + 500m = 1050m

therefore B

silly mistake

by shahmau » Sun Nov 05, 2006 2:32 pm
550m + 500m = 1050m

its actually B

by logik1911 » Sun Nov 05, 2006 2:36 pm
the quickest way to solve this problem is to try a conversion factor

550 represents 110%

so...

550 x 10% = 500 500+550 = 1050
110%



note: 550 being on top of 110% represents 550/110%
