Adam wants to buy a mobile phone. The usual price of the mobile phone is $2400.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 30%.
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
= 30% x 2400
=
30100 x 2400
= $720
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 2400 - 720
= $1680
GST
= 10% x 1680
=
10100 x 1680
= $168
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the mobile phone in all
= 1680 + 168
= $1848
Answer(s): (a) $168; (b) $1848
