Find the amount she has to pay for the bill.

Accepted Answer

Given,

Radha purchased following articles:

First Bakery shop ( S.T. $@ 10 %$ ) worth $₹ 42$ .

Now, there is S.T. $@ 10 %$ on the bakery shop.

So, $10 %$ of $₹ 42 = \frac{10}{100} \times ₹ 42 = ₹ 4.2$

Final price of product $= ₹ 42 + ₹ 4.2 = ₹ 46.2$

Second Clothes ( S.T. $7 %$ ) worth $₹ 800$ .

Now, there is S.T. $@ 7 %$ on the Clothes.

So, $7 %$ of $₹ 800 = \frac{7}{100} \times ₹ 800 = ₹ 56$

Final price of product $= ₹ 800 + ₹ 56 = ₹ 856$

Third a pair of shoes (S.T. $7 %$ ) worth $₹ 200$ .

Now, there is S.T. $@ 7 %$ on a pair of shoes.

So, $7 %$ of $₹ 200 = \frac{7}{100} \times ₹ 200 = ₹ 14$

Final price of product $= ₹ 200 + ₹ 14 = ₹ 214$

Fourth cosmetics (S.T. $10 %$ ) worth $₹ 150$ .

Now, there is S.T. $@ 10 %$ on the cosmetics.

So, $10 %$ of $₹ 150 = \frac{10}{100} \times ₹ 150 = ₹ 15$

Final price of product $= ₹ 150 + ₹ 15 = ₹ 165$

Total amount paid by her $= ₹ 46.2 + ₹ 856 + ₹ 214 + ₹ 165 = ₹ 1281.2$

Hence, the amount she has to pay for the bill is $₹ 1281.2$ .
