Answer 2

Given :

• Shikha purchased a car with marked price Rs.210000 at a discount of 5% .

To find :

• The amount she had paid for purchasing the car .

Solution :

【★】Marked price = Rs.210000

【★】Rate of discount = 5%

$\sf Discounted \: sales \: price = 210000 \: - \frac{5}{100} \times 210000 \\ \\ \sf = 210000 - 10500 = Rs199500$

Given rate of sale tax = 10%

$\sf ∴ Total \: amount \: payable = 199500 + 199500 \times \frac{10}{100} = 199500 + 199500 = \red{Rs219450}$
