1.	A shopkeeper sells an item at the price of Rs 810 including ST of 8% what should a customer pay for the same item if the ST is reduced to 6%.
Answer» Given S.P = 810, S.T = 8% S.P = C.P + 8% of C.P 810 = \(x + \frac{108x}{100}\) ⇒ x = \(\frac{81000}{108}\) = 750 ∴ Cost price 750 S.P= 750 + \(\frac{750\times6}{100}\) = 750+ 45 = 795 Customer pay Rs 795 for the same item if the S.T is reduced to 6%.

A shopkeeper sells an item at the price of Rs 810 including ST of 8% what should a customer pay for the same item if the ST is reduced to 6%.

Answer»

Given S.P = 810, S.T = 8%

S.P = C.P + 8% of C.P

810 = \(x + \frac{108x}{100}\)

⇒ x = \(\frac{81000}{108}\) = 750

∴ Cost price 750

S.P= 750 + \(\frac{750\times6}{100}\) = 750+ 45 = 795

Customer pay Rs 795 for the same item if the S.T is reduced to 6%.
