d) Medicines worth $Rs.200$ with the sales tax of $6\%$.
Find the bill amount for each item.

Answer 1

(A) Price $=250$, Tax $=4$%

Bill amount = Price +$4$%(Price)

$=250(1+\frac{4}{100})=Rs.260$

(B) Price $=2580$, Tax $=10\%$

Billing amount $=2580+\frac{10}{100}\times 2580$$=Rs.2838$

(C) Billing amount $=1200+\frac{3}{100}\times 1200$ $=Rs.1236$

(D) Billing amount $=200+\frac{6}{100}\times 200$$=Rs.212$
