Answer 1

Answer

Rs.216

Step-by-step explanation:

When u add 8% of 2700 to 2700 , u get:

8/100 ×2700 + 2700

=216+2700= 2916

Shopkeeper reduces X rupees = 2700

2916 -X= 2700

X= 2700 -2916

X= 216

Answer 2

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Marked price = 2700.

Given, tax = 8%.

Let the reduced price be 'x'.

Sales tax = 8% of x = (8/100) * x = (2x/25).

Amount paid by Gurpeet = (x + 2x/25) = 27x/25.

Now,

⇒ (27x/25) = 2700

⇒ 27x = 67500

⇒ x = 2500.

Given, Reduced price = 2700.

So, discount = 2700 - 2500 = 200.

Therefore, discount = 200.

Hope it helps!
