Question

Anu has to pay 4% sales tax in addition to the price of a certain article find the price of the article if she pays rupees 2.60 in all

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi.

Here is your answer--------

Let sale price of article = Rs y

Total price inclusive of sales tax= Rs8,250

Rate of sales tax= 10%

 8250 = y + 10% of y

Therefore, y = Rs.7500

According to question

(i)New rate of sales tax= 15%

New total price =Rs7,500+15% of Rs7,500

=Rs7,500 + Rs1,125=Rs8,625

More money paid = Rs8,625 - Rs8,250 = Rs375 Ans.

(ii)New rate of sales tax = 6%

New total price= Rs7,500 + 6% of Rs7,500

= Rs7,500 +Rs450 = Rs7,950

Less money paid = Rs8,250 - Rs7,950= Rs300 Ans.

(iii)New rate of sales tax=(10+2)%=12%

New total price= Rs7,500+ 12% of Rs7,500

= Rs7,500+ Rs900= Rs8,400

More money paid= Rs8,400 -Rs8,250= Rs150 Ans.

(iv)New rate of sales tax=(10-3)%= 7%

New total price = Rs7,500+ 7% of Rs7,500

= Rs7,500 + Rs525= Rs8,025

Less money paid = Rs8,250 -Rs8,025 = Rs225 Ans.

Hope it will help u.

Answer 2

let the cp be x
therefore
x+(x/25)=2.60
(25x+x)/25=2.6
26x=2.60×25
26x=₹65
x=65/26
=₹2.5
