Question

Himesh purchased a sofa set marked at 10000 at a discount of 15%. If he paid 8.5% sales tax find the amount he paid for the sofa set?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

marked price=10000

discount=15%

sales tax=8.5%

10000x15/100=1500

discount=1500

selling price=marked price-discount

selling price=10000-1500=8500

sales tax=8500x8.5/100=722.2

selling price+sales tax

8500-722.2=777.8

the amount be paid for the sofa set=777.8
