1.) Php 18,600.00
2.) Php2,650,500
Not sure sa number 2 sorry... :'(
3.) ₱1,200.00
Explanation
20% = 0.2 in decimal
1.) 15,500 x 0.2 = 3,100
3,100 + 15,500 = 18,600
So the original price is Php 18,600.00
7% = 0.07 in decimal
2.) 2,850,000 x 0.07 = 199,500
His commission is 199,500
2,850,000 – 199,500 = 2,650,500
The selling price was Php 2,650,500
20% = 0.2 in decimal
3.) 1,500 x 0.2 = 300
1,500 – 300 = 1,200
So the selling price is ₱1,200.00
Hope it helps! :)
