Solution

The correct option is A ₹2734.4
For the first two tickets costing ₹280 each,
GST = 18% of ₹ 560 = $\frac{18}{100} \times 560$ = ₹100.8

Total cost of these two tickets including GST
= ₹560 + ₹100.8 = ₹660.8

For the next 3 tickets costing ₹540 each,
GST = 28% of ₹1620 = $\frac{28}{100} \times 1620$ = ₹453.6

Total cost of these three tickets including GST
= ₹1620 + ₹453.6 = ₹2073.6

The amount that Ahmed had to pay for these five tickets
= ₹660.8 + ₹2073.6 = ₹2734.4
