8%

Step-by-step explanation

113.4 Rs. is the price including tax of the face cream and 105 Rs. is the printed price of the face cream.  

So, Reena has to pay (113.4-105) =8.4 Rs. as the tax for her purchase.

Hence, the percentage of tax she has to pay is given by  

$\frac{(113.4-105)}{105}100$ %

=$\frac{8.4}{105}.100$ %

= 8% (Answer)

Here we have used the formula that the tax to be paid in Percentage= [(Purchased price-Printed price)/Printed price]×100%
