From its total income, A sales company spent Rs.20,000 for
advertising, half of the remainder on commissions and had
Rs.6000 left.
What was its total income?
Answer Posted / natarajan
THIS IS THE BEST ANSWER.
Let the Total Income be X.
20,000 is spend for advertising.
"half of the remainder on commissions"->So, it is expressed as
((X-20000)/2)
6000 remain.
So algebrically,
X=20000 +((X-20000)/2)) + 6000
X-X/2 = 20000-10000+60000
X=32000
