Rajeev buys good worth Rs. 6650. He gets a rebate of 6% on it. After getting the rebate, he pays sales tax @ 10%. Find the amount he will have to pay for the goods.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
| Rebate = 6% of Rs. 6650 = Rs. |  |
6 | x 6650 |  |
= Rs. 399. |
| 100 |
| Sales tax = 10% of Rs. (6650 - 399) = Rs. | |
10 | x 6251 | |
= Rs. 625.10 |
| 100 |
Final amount = Rs. (6251 + 625.10) = Rs. 6876.10

6650 * 6 % = 399.
Q is after getting a rebate it means we have to add a rebate.
6650 + 399 = 7049.
10% of 7049 = 704.9.
He pays sales tax of 10 % means,
7049 + 704.9 = 7753.9,
I think this is right.

It is easy:
Total Amount Rajeev buys = 6650,
Rebate=6%,
So, 6%of 6560 = 399.
•Total - Rebate => 6560 - 399 = 6251,
10%=6251 of 10% =>625.10,
Add the tax amt + total,
Then,
6251 + 625.10 = 6876.1.

Total price = 6650.
This is common for both tax and rebate.
Rebate = 6% reduce the Total price then.
Tax = 10% increase the Total price.
So we take (10%-6%) = 4%, (4/100)*6650+6650 = 6676.10.

Good worth = 6650
Rebate = 399
So, Amount = (6650 - 399) = 6251 (After rebate)
Sales tax (10% of 6251) = 625.10
Therefore, final amount = Amount + Sales tax
= 6251 + 625.10
= 6876.10 Rs
Rebate = 399
So, Amount = (6650 - 399) = 6251 (After rebate)
Sales tax (10% of 6251) = 625.10
Therefore, final amount = Amount + Sales tax
= 6251 + 625.10
= 6876.10 Rs

If m- 4 is 7 more than n then m + 9 is how much more than n + 2?
m - 4 = 7+n,
m = n+11,
Then m + 9 = n + 11 + 9,
m + 9 = n + 20,
m + 9 = n + 2 + 18.
Then the answer is 18.
m - 4 = 7+n,
m = n+11,
Then m + 9 = n + 11 + 9,
m + 9 = n + 20,
m + 9 = n + 2 + 18.
Then the answer is 18.

@Dezal.
Out of 20 liters, 20% is water and remaining 80% is milk. In the second case, the volume is increased by adding water only. So milk % will remain same(80%).

@Shreya.
Actual price =6000;
discount 10%= (10/100)*6000 = 600.
After discount = 6000 - 600 = 5400.
Tax6% = (6/100) * 5400 = 324.
Final price = 5400+324= 5724.
Actual price =6000;
discount 10%= (10/100)*6000 = 600.
