Waseem buys jeans worth Rs6650. He gets a rebate of 6% on it. After getting the rebate, he pays sales tax@ 10%. Find the amount he will have to pay for the jeans.
6650*10/100=665 6650+665= 7315
7315*6/100= 438.9
7315-438.9= 6876.1

To find the amount Waseem will have to pay for the jeans, we need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Calculate the rebate amount.
The rebate amount is obtained by multiplying the original cost of the jeans by the rebate percentage.
Rebate amount = Rs6650 * (6/100) = Rs399
Step 2: Find the discounted price after the rebate.
Discounted price = Original cost - Rebate amount
Discounted price = Rs6650 - Rs399 = Rs6251
Step 3: Calculate the sales tax.
Sales tax is obtained by multiplying the discounted price by the sales tax rate.
Sales tax = Rs6251 * (10/100) = Rs625.1
Step 4: Calculate the final amount to be paid.
Final amount = Discounted price + Sales tax
Final amount = Rs6251 + Rs625.1 = Rs6876.1
Therefore, Waseem will have to pay Rs6876.1 for the jeans after getting the rebate and paying the sales tax.
