Reena bought the following articles from a general store:
(i) 1 tie costing Rs 250 with ST @ 6%
(ii) Medicines costing Rs 625 with ST @ 4%
(iii) Cosmetics costing Rs 430 with ST @ 10%
(iv) Clothes costing Rs 1175 with ST @ 8%
Calculate the total amount to be paid by Reena.
(i) Cost of the tie $=$ Rs. 250
Sales $\operatorname{tax}=6 \%$ of Rs 250
$=$ Rs. $\left(250 \times \frac{6}{100}\right)$
$=$ Rs. 15
Hence, bill amount $=$ Rs $(250+15)$
$=$ Rs. 265
(ii) Cost of the medicines $=$ Rs. 625
Sales $\operatorname{tax}=4 \%$ of Rs. 625
$=$ Rs. $\left(625 \times \frac{4}{100}\right)$
$=$ Bs. 25
Hence, bill amount $=\operatorname{Rs}(625+25)$
$=$ Rs 650
(iii) Cost of the cosmetics $=$ Rs 430
Sales $\operatorname{tax}=10 \%$ of Rs 430
$=\operatorname{Rs}\left(430 \times \frac{10}{100}\right)$
$=\operatorname{Rs} 43$
Hence, bill amount $=$ Rs $(430+43)$
$=$ Rs. 473
(iv) Cost of clothes $=$ Rs 1175
Sales $\operatorname{tax}=8 \%$ of Rs 1175
$=\mathrm{Rs}\left(1175 \times \frac{8}{100}\right)$
$=\mathrm{Rs} 94$
Hence, bill amount $=$ Rs $(1175+94)$
$=$ Rs. 1269
Therefore, total amount to be paid by Reena $=$ bill amount of all the four items
$=\mathrm{Rs}(265+650+473+1269)$
$=\mathrm{Rs} 2657$
