Answer:

9.625 gallons will be used by the painters in 3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

2.75 gallons = 1 hr

X gallons = 3.5 hrs

X = (3.5 × 2.75)/1

X = 9.625 gallons

9.625 gallons will be used by the painters in 3.5 hours

you can set this us as a ratio problem:

2.75 gallons/1 hr = x/3.5 hrs

x = 2.75 x 3.5

x = 9.625 gallons

Or you know 2.75 gallons in 1 hour so you would just multiply 3.5 hrs

Given :-

A dealer sold a photocopy machine at Rs 4200 with 13% VAT to a retailer.
The retailer added transportation cost of Rs 250 , profit Rs 300 and local tax Rs 150 and sold to consumer .
Customer has to pay 13% VAT .

To Find :-

Amount to be paid by the customer .

Solution :-

Here , according to the question ,

$\sf\dashrightarrow Cost\ of \ machine \ = \ Rs 4200$

$\sf\dashrightarrow VAT = 13\%$

Therefore cost after adding VAT ,

$\sf\dashrightarrow Cost = Cost_{initial}+13\% of Cost_{initial}\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow Cost = Rs4200 + Rs 4200 \times \dfrac{13}{100}\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow Cost = Rs4200 + Rs546\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow \bf{ Cost = Rs 4746}$

Again the values added by the retailer before selling to customer ,

Transport = Rs 250
Profit = Rs 300
Tax = Rs 150

Therefore total cost after adding these ,

$\sf\dashrightarrow Cost = Rs( 4746+ 250+ 300 + 150 )\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow\bf { Cost = Rs 5446}$

Again Selling price after addition of 13% VAT ,

$\sf\dashrightarrow SP = Rs 5446 + 13\% \ of \ Rs 5446\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow SP = Rs 5446 + \dfrac{13}{100}\times 5446 \\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow SP = Rs (5446 + 707.98) = Rs ( 5446 + 708)\\$

$\sf\dashrightarrow \underline{\underline{\bf SP_{to\ the \ customer} = Rs 6154}}$

Hence the amount to be paid by the customer is Rs 6154 .
