Solution

The correct option is C
₹ 7080

The cost of the shirt = ₹ 2000
Sales tax on shirt is charged at 5 %
Hence the total amount spent on the shirt = 2000 + $\frac{5}{100} \times$ 2000
= ₹ 2000 + 100
= ₹ 2100

The cost of the bags = ₹ 1800
Sales tax on bags is charged at 12 %
Hence the total amount on bags = 1800 + $\frac{12}{100} \times$ 1800
= ₹ 1800 + 216
= ₹ 2016

The cost of the Miscellaneous items = ₹ 2850
Sales tax on Miscellaneous items is charged at 4 %
Hence the total amount on Miscellaneous items = 2850 + $\frac{4}{100} \times$ 2850
= ₹ 2850 + 114.0
= ₹ 2964

Hence the total amount paid = 2100 + 2016 + 2964
= ₹ 7080
