A Correct answer
Explanation
Let the list price of T.V is $Rs x$

Then sales tax @9% =$\dfrac{x\times 9}{100}=\dfrac{9x}{100}$

And  sales tax @6% =$\dfrac{x\times 6}{100}$=$\dfrac{6x}{100}$ 

Then geeta save Rs $\dfrac{6x}{100}$-$\dfrac{6x}{100}$

But she save Rs 780

$\dfrac{9x}{100}-\dfrac{6x}{100}=780$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{9x-6x}{100}=780$
$\Rightarrow 3x=78000$

$\Rightarrow x=26000$ 
Then list price of T.V $=Rs 26000$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Marked price of the article $=Rs.4500$
Rate of sales tax $=6\%$
VAT paid by the trader $=Rs.81$
C.P for the customer=Rs.4500
Sales tax paid=$4500\times \dfrac{6}{100}=Rs.270$
So sales tax paid by the trader$=270-81=Rs.189$
C.P for the trader$=\dfrac{4500\times 189}{270}=Rs.3150$
(1)
Amount of discount=$4500-3150=Rs.1350$
Rate of discount$=\dfrac{1350\times 100}{4500}=30$%
(2)
Total amount paid by the trader$=3150+6\%  of   3150$
$\Rightarrow 3150+\dfrac{6}{100}\times 3150$
$\Rightarrow 3150+189=Rs.3339$
