Given,
S.P. = ₹ 1,200
Sales tax = 20%
Bill amount = S.P. + Tax amount
= ₹ 1,200 + 20% of 1,200
= ₹ 1,200 + x 1,200
= ₹ 1,200 + 20 x 12
= ₹ 1,200 + ₹ 240
= ₹ 1,440
So, assertion (A) is true.
Bill amount = S.P. + Sale tax amount

=
So, reason (R) is true and reason (R) clearly explains assertion (A).
Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
