Rekha bought the washing machine 2568 and the 7% sales tax is additional, if the shopkeepers reduced the money from some face value, then the line should be reduced in the amount of face value of 2568, including washing machine sale tax.



$\bold{\underline{Answer-}}$


$\bold{Your\:answer\:is\:\:(168)}$




$\bold{\underline{Explanation-}}$


We know that face value is 2568



and sale tax rate = 7%



Reduced ₹ x out of the mentioned face value and the purchase price = (2568 - x)


now,


Sales tax on = $\frac{(2568 - x) \times 7}{100}$


so,



Price with sales tax = $(2568 - x) + \frac{(2568 - x) \times 7}{100} = 2568$



$x = \frac{(2568 - x) \times 7}{100} \\ \\ \\ 100x = 2568 \times 7 - 7x \\ \\ \\ \\ 107x = 2568 \times 7 \\ \\ \\ \\ x = \frac{2568 \times 7}{107} \\ \\ \\ \\ x= 24 \times 7 \\ \\ \\ \\ x = 168$





so, ₹168 should be reduced from face value
