- 30,000
- 32,000
- 34,000
- 35,000
Correct Option: C
Let the salesman’s total sales be (10000 + x)
According to the question,
| 10000 × | % + x × 6% = 1990 | |
| 2 |
⇒ 5000 × 11% + 6x% = 1990
⇒ 5000 × 11 + 6x = 199000
⇒ 6x = 199000 – 55000
⇒ 6x = 144000
| ⇒ x = | = 24000 | |
| 6 |
∴ The required sales
= 24000 + 10000 = ₹ 34,000
