Answer 2

a) Rs. 64.80 as GST, b) amount paid by the customer is Rs. 1144.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Marked price = Rs. 1200

Discount % = 10%

So, Amount of discount would be

$\dfrac{10}{100}\times 1200=120$

So, Selling price would be

Marked price - discount = selling price

$1200-120=1080$

Rate of GST = 6%

So, Amount of GST would be

$\dfrac{6}{100}\times 1080\\\\=0.06\times 1080\\\\=Rs.\ 64.80$

So, amount paid by the customer to buy the item is given by

$1080+64.8=1144.80$

Hence, a) Rs. 64.80 as GST, b) amount paid by the customer is Rs. 1144.80.
