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

Let x be maximum no.of marks and y be minimum marks.
25x/100=y-30 .......(1).
x/2 = y+(20 * y/100).
x/2 = 6y/5......(2).
From 1 x/4 = y-30.
(x/2) * 1/2 = y-30.
(6y/5) * 1/2 = y-30.
3y = 5y-150.
y = 75.
x = 180.

Let assume.
100------------>6650
94------------->? (6%he gets a rebate(discount)so,we deduct6%).
Then,94*6650/100=6251.
After that,he pays 10%on sales tax.
So,100------------->6251(after rebate total money)
110------------->?(including 10% tax).
Then,110*6251/100==>687610/100=6876.10.
He will have to pay for the goods Rs.6876.10.
