Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given List price of a cooler is rupees 2563. The rate of sale tax is 10%. the customer request shopkeeper to allow discount of on price of cooler to such an extent that the price remains rupees 2563 inclusive of sales tax find the discount on the price of cooler  

• Let a be the price the customer bought without sales tax or excluding sales tax.
• So Sales tax = 10 / 100 a
• So a + 1/10 a = 2563
• Or 11 a = 25630
• Or a = 2330
• But list price of cooler  = 2563

Therefore discount in price = 2563 – 2330

                                          = Rs 233

Answer 2

Given,

The selling price of the Cooler =Rs.2563

Let the deduct price of the cooler be x.

VAT Charged=10%

Now, the selling price of the cooler will be

=x+10% of x

Therefore,

x+10% of x=2563

x+0.1x=2563

1.1x=2563

x=2330

Hence, the discount allowed in the price of the cooler is

=Rs.2563−Rs.2330

=Rs.233
