Q4 of 13 Page 57

Umatai purchased following items from a Khadi - Bhandar.

(i) 3 sarees for 560 rupees each.


(ii) 6 bottles of honey for 90 rupees each.


On the purchase, she received a rebate of 12%. How much total amount did Umatai pay?


Given:


Rebate = 15%


Cost of 3 sarees = 3 560 = Rs 1680


Cost of 6 bottles = 6 90 = Rs 540


Hence, total cost of purchased items = 1680 + 540 = Rs 2220


Given rebate rate = 12%


We have Rebate = Rebate Rate Cost Price



Amount payed by Umatai = Total cost – Rebate


∴ Amount payed = 2220 – 266.40 = Rs 1953.60


Hence, the total amount payed by Umatai is Rs 1953.60.
