Let the price of the refrigerator without sales tax = P. Here, the selling price S = 17600 and the rate of sales tax i.e., r = 10 S = P(1 + r/100) 1700= P(1 + 10/100) P * 11/10 = Rs. 17600 Therefore, P = 17600 × 11/10 = 1600 × 10 = Rs. 16000 Therefore, the sale tax = Selling price - Printed price ...

TEACHING IS MY PASSION-I STILL STRIVE TO BETTER MY TEACHING ABILITIES

If 'r' stands for the percentage rate of Sales Tax say then (100+r) will be the Sale Price. While its cost price is 100 and 'r' will be the Sales Tax '. Therefore, if 'SP stands for actual Sale Price and 'ST' stands for actual Sales tax then we have:- (100+r) : r :: SP : ST OR (100+r)/r = SP / ST...

If 'r' stands for the percentage rate of Sales Tax say then (100+r) will be the Sale Price. While its cost price is 100 and 'r' will be the Sales Tax '. Therefore, if 'SP stands for actual Sale Price and 'ST' stands for actual Sales tax then we have:- (100+r) : r :: SP : ST OR (100+r)/r = SP / ST From this formula , given the values of any two of 'r' ; 'SP' ; 'ST' the value of the third can be found. In the given Sum, r = 10, SP = 17600 ST =? from the above formula, we can write ST =r * SP /(100+r) = 10 * 17600 /(100+10) = 10 * 17600/110 = Rs.1600. Therefore, the Sales Tax on the Refrigerator is Rs.1600. read less
