Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• The cost of shoes was Rs 700.
• The sales tax charged was 10%.

To Find :-

• What is the bill amount.

Solution :-

First, we have to find the tax amount :

Given :

• Cost Price = Rs 700
• Sales tax charged = 10%

According to the question by using the formula we get,

$\small \implies \sf\boxed{\bold{Tax\: Amount =\: Sales\: Tax\: Percentage \times Cost\: Price}}$

$\implies \sf Tax\: Amount =\: 10\% \times 700$

$\implies \sf Tax\: Amount =\: \dfrac{10}{100} \times 700$

$\implies \sf Tax\: Amount =\: \dfrac{10 \times 700}{100}$

$\implies \sf Tax\: Amount =\: \dfrac{70\cancel{00}}{1\cancel{00}}$

$\implies \sf Tax\: Amount =\: \dfrac{70}{1}$

$\implies \sf\bold{\underline{Tax\: Amount =\: Rs\: 70}}$

Hence, the tax amount is Rs 70 .

Now, we have to find the bill amount :

Given :

• Tax Amount = Rs 70
• Cost Price = Rs 700

According to the question by using the formula we get,

$\small \implies \sf\boxed{\bold{Bill\: Amount =\: Cost\: Price + Tax\: Amount}}$

$\implies \sf Bill\: Amount =\: Rs\: 700 + Rs\: 70$

$\implies \sf\bold{\underline{Bill\: Amount =\: Rs\: 770}}$

$\therefore$ The bill amount is Rs 770 .
