Adam wants to buy a projector. The usual price of the projector is $2300.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 25%.
He needs to pay a GST of 12%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the projector in all?
Discount
= 25% x 2300
=
25100 x 2300
= $575
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 2300 - 575
= $1725
GST
= 12% x 1725
=
12100 x 1725
= $207
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the projector in all
= 1725 + 207
= $1932
Answer(s): (a) $207; (b) $1932
