Adam wants to buy a massage chair. The usual price of the massage chair is $2400.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 25%.
He needs to pay a GST of 6%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the massage chair in all?
Discount
= 25% x 2400
=
25100 x 2400
= $600
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 2400 - 600
= $1800
GST
= 6% x 1800
=
6100 x 1800
= $108
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the massage chair in all
= 1800 + 108
= $1908
Answer(s): (a) $108; (b) $1908
