Adam wants to buy a projector. The usual price of the projector is $1400.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 10%.
He needs to pay a GST of 5%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the projector in all?
Discount
= 10% x 1400
=
10100 x 1400
= $140
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 1400 - 140
= $1260
GST
= 5% x 1260
=
5100 x 1260
= $63
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the projector in all
= 1260 + 63
= $1323
Answer(s): (a) $63; (b) $1323
