Commission of each notebook of Tk.450 at the rate of 4% = 450*(4/100) = 18
Commission of each pencil box of Tk.60 at the rate of 20% = 60*(20/100) = 12

Each day commission on 10 notebooks = 18 x 10 = 180
Each day commission on 6 pencil boxes = 6 x 12 = 72,
Each day total commission 180 + 72 = 252

In two weeks, total commission = 252 x 14 = 3528(E)

A shopkeeper sells notebooks at the rate of Rs. 450 each and earns a commission of 4% on selling price. He also sells pencil boxes at the rate of Rs. 60 each and earns a commission of 20% on selling price. How much amount of commission will be earned in two weeks if he sells 10 notebooks and 6 pencil boxes a day ?
(a) Rs. 3784
(b) Rs. 2854
(c) Rs. 3453
(d) Rs. 2520
(e) None of these
The commission the shopkeeper earns per day is:

450 x 0.04 x 10 + 60 x 0.2 x 6 = 180 + 72 = 252

So in two weeks, or 14 days, he earns:

252 x 14 = 3528

Answer: E
