Answer 1

The correct option is D

Rs 8

Given that the sales price of the burger is Rs 100.
Now we know that the sales tax depends only on the selling price of the commodity.
The sales tax on the burger is 8%.
So sales tax on the burger=$\frac{8}{100}\times 100=Rs8$
Hence, the sales tax on the burger is Rs 8.
