bill amount = cost price +  discount  

216 + 1800 = 2016 .

2016 IS THE COST PRICE

Answer 2

Answer:

Concept:

Percentage:

A number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100 is called a percentage. The percentage sign, "%" is frequently used to denote it.

Percentage of s in a  $= \frac{s}{100} *a$

Example: 15 % of 150 $= \frac{15}{100} *150 = 10$

Given:

Cost of fan in Rs $= 1800$

Sales Tax charged $= 12$%

To Find:

We need to find the billing amount.

Solution:

We know that billing amount is the sum of the cost price of the fan and the tax charged. So,

Bill Amount = Cost Price + Sales Tax

⇒ Sales Tax  $= \frac{s}{100} *a$

⇒ Sales Tax $=\frac{12}{100} * 1800$

⇒ Sales Tax $=12*18$

⇒Sales Tax $=216$

Bill Amount = Cost Price + Sales Tax

Bill Amount $=1800 + 216$

Bill Amount $= 2016$

Therefore, the billing amount is Rs. 2016.
