Adam wants to buy a mobile phone. The usual price of the mobile phone is $1400.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 35%.
He needs to pay a GST of 10%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the mobile phone in all?
Discount
= 35% x 1400
=
35100 x 1400
= $490
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 1400 - 490
= $910
GST
= 10% x 910
=
10100 x 910
= $91
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the mobile phone in all
= 910 + 91
= $1001
Answer(s): (a) $91; (b) $1001
