Adam wants to buy a printer. The usual price of the printer is $2050.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 50%.
He needs to pay a GST of 4%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the printer in all?
Discount
= 50% x 2050
=
50100 x 2050
= $1025
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 2050 - 1025
= $1025
GST
= 4% x 1025
=
4100 x 1025
= $41
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the printer in all
= 1025 + 41
= $1066
Answer(s): (a) $41; (b) $1066
