Answer 2

Answer:

• Total airfare between the two cities is ₹1950.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

• The airfare between two cities is ₹1500 and plus 30% tax.

To Find:

• Total airfare.

Process:

We have been provided with cost of airfare (₹1500) and tax included (30%). To find the total airfare we have to add 1500 to 30% of 1500, which is 450. After adding 1500 and 450, the result we get is the total airfare.

Solution:

$\sf{Total\;airfare=1500+(30\%\;of\;1500)}$

Writing percentage in fraction:

$\sf{=1500+\left(\dfrac{30}{100}\times1500\right)}$

Cutting off the zeros,

$\sf{=1500+\left(\dfrac{30}{1\!\!\!\not{0}\!\!\!\not{0}}\times15\!\!\!\not{0}\!\!\!\not{0}\right)}$

$\sf{=1500+(30\times15)}$

Multiplying the numbers and opening the bracket,

$\sf{=1500+450}$

Adding the numbers,

$\sf{=1950}$

Hence,

• Total airfare is ₹1950.
