- x be the marked price
x – 20% of x + 5% of sales tax + 5% of (x – 20% of x) = 2670
x=3000 - 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 20% discount = x/5
price after discount = x - x/5 = 4x/5
sales tax = 5/100
service tax = 5/100*(4x/5) = x/25
4x/5 + 5x/100 + x/25 = 2670
89x = 267000
x= 3000 - 3 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
