Question

Tickets to a concert cost Rs. 36 each. What is the total cost of each ticket, if there is a 6% sales tax ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The total cost of each ticket is 38.16 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ticket cost = Rs 36

            Sales tax = 6%

            Total cost of ticket = ?

Solution : Total cost of ticket = Ticket cost x (1+ Sales tax/100)

                                                = 36 x ( 1 +6/100)

                                                = 36 x 1.06

                                               = 38.16 Rs

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs. 38.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of ticket = Rs. 36 + 6% of 36

So we need to find the value of 6% of 36.

= 6/100 × 36

= 216/100

= 2.16

So, the total cost of the ticket = 36 + 2.16

                                                 = 38.16

The tickets to the concert cost Rs. 38.16.
