Solution

The cost price of the dining table = Rs. 3200
$∴$ The dining table sold at a gain of 6%.
So, selling price of the dining table = $3200 + \frac{6}{100} \times 3200 = 3200 + 192 = R s . 3392$
Also, customer pay sale tax = 5%
Selling price with sales tax = $3392 + 3392 \times \frac{5}{100} = 3392 + 169.6 = R s . 3561.60$
