Answer:

18877.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this

you can solve this by using a simple rule of three.

Step one

define

if arjunp paid 2% commission, it means that he kept 98 percent of the sale value,it is

18500 ⇔ 98%

the selling price(x) is 100% , it means

x ⇔ 100%

the relation is

[tex]\frac{18500}{98}= \frac{x}{100}\\[/tex]

Step two

find the value of x,

[tex]\frac{18500}{98}= \frac{x}{100}\\x=\frac{18500*100}{98}\\x=18877.55[/tex]

the selling prices is 18877.55

Have a good day.
