Question

sakshi went out for dinner at a restaurant with her family. her total bill was ₹1799. a service charge of 12% was added to the bill. estimate the service charge on the bill(in rupees)

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the bill amount be B, then 12% of this amount is B×12/100=0.12B

B+0.12B=1799

B(1.12)=1799

B=1799/1.12=1606.25

service charge=1606.25×0.12=192.75
