      A man purchased refrigerator and got 10% happy hour

      discount but paid 1.5% CGST and 1.5% SGST on the discounted rate. Had he got Rs 600 as discount and then paid the said taxes, he would have paid Rs. 51.5 more. What was the price of refrigerator before discount?
      A Rs. 8500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 7500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 6500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the amount be x. Then, (x – 10% of x) * 103/100 = 9x/10 * 103/100 = 927x/1000 Again, (x – 600) * 103/100 = 103x/100 – 618 According to the question, 103x/100 – 618 – 51.5 = 927x/1000 103x/100 – 927x/1000 = 618 + 51.5 103x/1000 = 669.5 x = Rs. 6500
