Answer 1

Answer:

Customer has to pay 2391.12 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

• Discount = 10%

• Marked Price = 2460 Rs.

• Sale Tax = 8%

To find :

Price customer has to pay finally = ?

Solution :

We know the formula , that price after allowing the discount is given by :

$\implies \sf \: original \: price - \dfrac{original \: price \times discount}{100}$

$\implies \sf \: 2460- \dfrac{2460 \times 10}{100}$

$\implies \sf \: 2460 - \dfrac{24600 }{100}$

$\implies \sf \: 2460 - 246$

$\implies \sf \: 2214 Rs$

$\implies \sf \: SP = 2214 + \bigg( \dfrac{2214 \times 8}{100} \bigg)$

$\implies \sf \: SP = 2214 + \dfrac{17712}{100}$

$\implies \sf \: SP = \dfrac{59778}{25}$

$\implies \sf \: SP = \: Rs \: 2391.12$

Customer will have to pay Rs 2391.12
