• B. $432.5$
• C. $473.5$
• D. $433.5$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $472.5$

Cost price of a pair of shirts is Rs. $450$.

Tax charged is $5\%$

Tax charged $=$ $\frac{5}{100}\times 450=$ Rs. $22.5$

Bill amount $=$ Cost price $+$ Tax charged.

Bill amount $=$ Rs. $450+$ Rs. $22.5=$ Rs. $472.5$
