Answer 1

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

Marked price = 8900 Rs

Cost price = 8018 Rs

GST = 1602 Rs

Profit = 882 Rs

● Explaination -

Selling price of water heater is given ₹ 10502.

Marked price is calculated is -

Selling price = Marked price × (100+GST%)/100

10502 = Marked price × (100+18)/100

Marked price = 10502 × 100/118

Marked price = 10502 × 100/118

Marked price = 8900 Rs

GST is calculated as -

GST = Selling price - marked price

GST = 10502 - 8900

GST = 1602 Rs

Cost price of water heater is -

Marked price = Cost price(1+profit%)

8900 = Cost price × (100+11)/100

Cost price = 8900 × 100/111

Cost price = 8018 Rs

Profit is calculated as -

Profit = Marked price = Cost price

Profit = 8900 - 8018

Profit = 882 Rs

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you..
