Question

1. Find the buying price of each of the following when 5% ST is added on the purchase of

(a) A towel at ₹ 50
(b) two bars of soap at ₹ 35 each
(c) 5kg of flour at ₹ 15 per kg

Answer 1

b) We know that

C.P. of 5 kg of flour at the rate of Rs.15 per kg =15×5

=Rs.75

Rate of S.T. =5%

Here

Total tax =(75×5)/100

So we get

=375/100

=Rs.3.75

So the total price of the flour =75+3.75=Rs.78.75
