The price of a TV is Rs 13,000. The sales tax charged on it is at the rate of 12% . Find the amount that Vinod will have to pay if he buys it.

Given:

Cost of TV = Rs. 13000

Sales tax charge = 12%

To find: Here we have to find the amount that Vinod will have to pay to buy it.

Solution:

Sales tax charge on TV = 12% of Cost of TV

Sales tax charge on TV = Rs. $\frac{12}{100}\times13000$

Sales tax charge on TV = Rs. 1560

Now,

The amount that Vinod will have to pay = Cost of TV $+$ Sales tax charge on TV

The amount that Vinod will have to pay = Rs. 13000 $+$ 1560

The amount that Vinod will have to pay = Rs 14560

So, Vinod will have to pay Rs. 14560 to buy that TV.
