Milan needs [tex]\$1000[/tex] American dollars for higher study in America, and the bank charges [tex]1\%[/tex] as commission. How much Nepali rupees does he require?



Answer :

Certainly! Let's solve this problem step by step:

1. Determine the total cost in Nepali rupees without commission:

Milan needs [tex]$1000 American dollars. The selling rate is \(1\$[/tex] = \text{Rs} 128.10\). To find out how many Nepali rupees are needed for [tex]$1000 American dollars without considering the commission, we multiply the amount needed by the selling rate: \[ \text{Total Cost Without Commission} = 1000 \times 128.10 = \text{Rs} 128100.0 \] 2. Calculate the commission: The bank charges a 1% commission on the total cost. To calculate the commission, we need to find 1% of Rs 128100.0: \[ \text{Commission} = 0.01 \times 128100.0 = \text{Rs} 1281.0 \] 3. Calculate the total cost with commission: Now, we add the commission to the total cost without commission to get the total amount Milan needs to pay in Nepali rupees: \[ \text{Total Cost With Commission} = 128100.0 + 1281.0 = \text{Rs} 129381.0 \] Therefore, Milan will require Rs 129381.0 to get $[/tex]1000 American dollars, including the bank's 1% commission.
