Nikita sold two wheeler through agent she got Rs 17150 for it after paying agrnt if commission was paid at 2% find selling price

1.02 x = 7150

so
x = 7150/1.02

Commission = 2%

For Rs.100 Nikita gets RS.98.
Therefore for Rs.x she got RS.17,150.

100:x = 98:17150

Cross multiplication

x = 17150 × 100 ÷ 98
x = RS. 17500

To find the selling price of the two-wheeler, we need to work backwards considering the commission paid to the agent.

Let's denote the selling price as "S".

According to the given information, after paying the agent's commission of 2%, Nikita received Rs 17150.

We know that agent commission = Selling price * commission rate.

So, agent commission = S * 2/100 = S/50.

From the equation, we can write:

S - S/50 = Rs 17150.

Simplifying the equation:

(50S - S)/50 = Rs 17150.

(49S)/50 = Rs 17150.

To find S, multiply both sides of the equation by 50/49:

S = (50/49) * Rs 17150.

S ≈ Rs 17551.02.

Therefore, the selling price of the two-wheeler is approximately Rs 17551.02.
