Adam wants to buy a projector. The usual price of the projector is $2250.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 40%.
He needs to pay a GST of 12%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the projector in all?
Discount
= 40% x 2250
=
40100 x 2250
= $900
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 2250 - 900
= $1350
GST
= 12% x 1350
=
12100 x 1350
= $162
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the projector in all
= 1350 + 162
= $1512
Answer(s): (a) $162; (b) $1512
