A shirt having a price tag of Rs.600 is sold at 15% discount

Shirt price tag =600

Discount =15%

Discount =10015×600=90Rs.

Amount paid = price tag −discount

=600−90

=510 Rs.

Find the rate of discount when

M.P. is 1500 and discount is 12%

Raja got 76% marks and Seema got 480 marks in a test. The maximum marks of
the test is equal to the marks obtained by Raja and Seema together. How many
marks did Raja score in the test?
Let maximum marks be =x

and raja got =ymarks

Now, according to question

⇒y+480=x

⇒10076x+480=x

⇒76x+48000=100x

⇒24x=48000

∴x=2000

and,

Raja got =2000−480=1520 marks.

Hence, the required answer is 1520 marks .

Sales tax is charged by the government on the sale of an item.

It is collected by the shopkeeper from the customer and given to the government.

Sales tax is always on the selling price of an item and is added to the value of the bill.

Added Tax (VAT).

Example 8: (Finding Sales Tax) The cost of a pair of roller skates at a shop was ` 450. The sales tax
charged was 5%. Find the bill amount.

100, the tax paid was 5.

On ` 450, the tax paid would be = 5/100 x 450 = 22.50

Bill amount = Cost of item + Sales tax = 450 + 22.50 = 472.50

(Value Added Tax (VAT)) Waheeda bought an air cooler for ` 3300 including a tax of 10%. Find the
