(a) Given,
Cost price of T.V. = ₹ 20,000
Marked price = ₹ 24,000
Discount = 10%
GST = 12%
Discount provided by shopkeeper = 10% of ₹ 24,000
= $\frac{10}{100} \times 24000$
= ₹ 2,400
Discounted price of the TV set = ₹ 24,000 - ₹ 2,400 = ₹ 21,600
Hence, discounted price of the TV set = ₹ 21,600.
(b) GST = 12% of 21,600
= $\frac{12}{100} \times 21600$
= ₹ 2,592
Total amount paid by customer = ₹ 21,600 + ₹ 2,592 = ₹ 24,192
Hence, amount paid by customer = ₹ 24,192.
