A TV agent entitled to 7/4% commission earns Rs.10620.75 in a year by selling 170 TV sets.What is the price of each set?

(A)Rs.3340
(B)Rs.3450
(C)Rs.3550
(D)Rs.3570
(E)Rs.3740
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button :)



Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.

x*1.75/100*170 = 10620.75
x = 1063975/(1.75*170) = 3576, close to D
