Rajeev buy goods worth Rs. 6650. He gets a rebate of 6% on it. After getting the rebate, he pays sale tax @ 10%. Find the amount he will have to pay for the goods ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Rebate = 6% of Rs. 6650
$$\eqalign{ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{6}{{100}} \times 6650} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 399}} \cr} $$
Sales tax = 10 % of (6650 - 399)
$$\eqalign{ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{10}}{{100}} \times 6251} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 625}}{\text{.10}} \cr} $$
∴ Final amount = Rs. (6251 + 625.10)
= Rs. 6876.10
$$\eqalign{ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{6}{{100}} \times 6650} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 399}} \cr} $$
Sales tax = 10 % of (6650 - 399)
$$\eqalign{ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{10}}{{100}} \times 6251} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 625}}{\text{.10}} \cr} $$
∴ Final amount = Rs. (6251 + 625.10)
= Rs. 6876.10
