Adam wants to buy a printer. The usual price of the printer is $1950.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 40%.
He needs to pay a GST of 10%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the printer in all?
Discount
= 40% x 1950
=
40100 x 1950
= $780
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 1950 - 780
= $1170
GST
= 10% x 1170
=
10100 x 1170
= $117
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the printer in all
= 1170 + 117
= $1287
Answer(s): (a) $117; (b) $1287
