Answer 2

Given,

Marked price of the chair = Rs. 8000

Discount = 10%

Rate of tax = 18%

To find,

The tax amount for this purchase.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.

First of all, we have to calculate the price after the discount.

So,

Discount amount = (8000×10/100) = Rs. 800

Price after discount = Original price - Discount amount = 8000-800 = Rs. 7200

Now,

Tax amount will be :

= 7200 × 18/100 (Calculated w.r.t price after discount)

= Rs. 1296

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the payable tax amount is Rs. 1296
