Adam wants to buy a printer. The usual price of the printer is $1800.
As a privileged card member, he is entitled to a discount of 25%.
He needs to pay a GST of 10%.
- How much is the GST?
- How much does he pay for the printer in all?
Discount
= 25% x 1800
=
25100 x 1800
= $450
Amount that Adam has to pay
= 1800 - 450
= $1350
GST
= 10% x 1350
=
10100 x 1350
= $135
(b)
Amount that Adam pays for the printer in all
= 1350 + 135
= $1485
Answer(s): (a) $135; (b) $1485
