Answer 1

The reduction in the price us required to be given by the shopkeeper so that the price remains Rs. 1888 including the GST 18% is Rs. 288.

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked price of the dinner set = Rs. 1888 (excluding GST)

GST rate = 18%

It is given that Aastha requests to reduce the marked price in such a way that she has to pay a total of Rs. 1888 including the GST of 18%.

Let the reduced marked price be denoted as Rs. “x”.

Therefore, we can write the equation as,

x + $\frac{18}{100}$x = 1888

⇒ x + 0.18x = 1888

⇒ 1.18x = 1888

⇒ x = Rs. 1600

Thus,  

The reduction in the price that the shopkeeper is required to give in the price is  

= rs. 1888 – rs. 1600

= Rs. 288

Answer 2

Reduction in the price is required to be given by the shopkeeper is Rs.288

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price be x so that she will have to pay rs. 1888 after gst is include

GST=18%

Tax  = $18\% \times x =\frac{18}{100}x=0.18x$

So, Total cost = Marked price + tax = x+0.18x = 1.18x

Now Total amount paid by her is Rs.1888

So,$1.18x=1888$

$x=\frac{1888}{1.18}$

$x=1600$

Original marked price = Rs.1888

So, reduction in price = Original marked price - New marked price

                                    = 1888 - 1600

                                    =288

Hence reduction in the price is required to be given by the shopkeeper is Rs.288
