SSC CGL - 24 Sep 2025 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q62

A seller gives a 20% discount and charges 18% GST on the discounted price. On a Rs. 2000 item, how much is payable?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Rs. 1888.

MP = 2000

20% discount ⇒ Discounted price = 2000 × 8/10 = 1600

18% GST on 1600 = 0.18 × 1600 = 288

Payable amount = 1600 + 288 = 1888
