Question

Anjali bought scents that cost Rs. 500 and ornaments that cost Rs. 800/-

from a shop. The sale tax on scent is 16% and that on ornaments is 8% how

much amount did Anjali in total pay to the shopkeeper.​

Answer 1

Total amount of scents=500+(500×16/100)

=500+(5×16)

=500+80=₹580

total amount of ornaments=800+(800×8÷100)

=800+(8×8)

=800+64=₹864

So,amount did Anjali pay in total the shopkeeper= 580+864=₹1444

Hope it helps you!
