Answer 1

Answer:

Reduction of the price of the watch is Rs 1291.68 .

Step-by-step explanation by Rashid21:

As given

Veena bought a watch costing Rs. 1404 including sales tax at 8%.

She asked the shopkeeper to reduce the price of the watch so that she can save the amount equal to the tax.

8% is written in the decimal form .

= \frac{8}{100}=

100

8

= 0.08

Sale tax = 0.08 × Cost price of the watch

= 0.08 × 1404

= Rs 112.32

Reduction of the price of the watch = Original price of watch - Sales tax

= 1404 - 1404−112.32

= $ 1291.68

Therefore the reduction of the price of the watch is Rs 1291.68 .

Answer 2

$\huge\mathbb{GIVEN\::-}$

MP= ₹45000
discount = 6%

$s.p. = mp \times ( \frac{100 - discount\%}{100} ) \\ \\ s.p = .45000 \times \frac{100 - 6}{100} \\ s.p. = 450 \times 94 \\ s.p. = 42300$

VAT = 10%

$\frac{10}{100} \times 42300 \\ \\ = 4230$


$\bold{TOTAL\: AMOUNT\: WITH\: VAT \:=4230+42300}$


$\bold{ANSWER=₹46530}$
