Question 8
The price of a TV is Rs 13,000. The sales tax charged on it is at the rate of 12%. Find the amount that Vinod will have to pay if he buys it.

Answer 1

C.P = Rs 13,000 and S.T .rate = 12%
Let C.P be Rs 100, then S.P for purchaser = 100+12=Rs 112
$\therefore$ When C.P is Rs 100, then S.P = Rs 112
$\therefore$ When C.P is Rs 1, then S.P =$\frac{112}{100}$
$\therefore$ When C.P is Rs 13,000, then S.P= $\frac{112}{100}\times 13000=Rs.14,560$
