Question

at the furniture shop,the bill amount was RS 18000 including sales tax . if the marked price was RS 16000 , find the rate of sales price.

Answer 1

Hey there,
Hope the question was about rate of sales tax

Tax price = 18000 - 16000
 = 2000

To find the sales tax =  (Tax price/ sale price) * 100

=  (2000/ 16000) * 100
12.5 %

Hope it helps...

Answer 2

Answer:

12.5%

Bill amount including tax=18000

Marked price=16000

Tax price=18000-16000=2000

Sales tax=Tax price/Sale price*100

=2000/16000*100

=12.5%

Therefore rate of sales tax is 12.5%
