उत्तर

Given that, cost price of dining table = Rs. 3,200 and gain on selling = 6% and tax rate = 5%.

We know, Gain = Selling price – Cost price

⇒ Selling price = Gain + Cost price

= `6/100 xx 800 + 800`

= 3200 + 192

= Rs. 3392

Now, If a customer pays sales tax at the rate of 5, then – Selling price after tax

=  Selling price after tax + `5/100` × Selling price before tax

= `3392 + 5/100 xx 3392`

= Rs. 3392 + 169.6

= Rs. 3561.6
