Answer: 350000

Step-by-step explanation: Let the total sale of noodles by the wholesaler be x.

Given: Commission for the wholesaler is 10%

After receiving a 10% commission the company got rupees 315000.

x-10% of x =315000

x - 10\100 = 315000

x-x\10 = 315000

10x - 10\10 =315000

9x = 3150000

x= 3150000\9

x= 350000

To find the total sales of noodles by the wholesaler in Baishakh, we need to calculate the original amount before the commission was deducted.

Let's assume the total sales by the wholesaler in Baishakh is represented by 'x'.

The commission given to the wholesaler is 10% of the total sales, which can be expressed as 0.10x.

The amount received by the company after deducting the commission is Rs 315,000.

So, the equation becomes:
x - 0.10x = Rs 315,000

Simplifying the equation:
0.90x = Rs 315,000

Dividing both sides by 0.90:
x = Rs 350,000

Therefore, the total sales of noodles by the wholesaler in Baishakh is Rs 350,000.
