Question

The cost of a pair of roller skates at a shop was Rs450. The sales tax charged was 5 per cent. Find the bill amount

Answer 1

the answer is so simple that is 472.5

Answer 2

Cost Price = Rs 450

Amount of Sales Tax Charged = 5% of 450 = 5/100*450 = 22.50

Thus Bill Amount = C.P. + Amount of Sales tax Charged

                              = 450+22.50

                              = Rs 472.50
