Answer: Second last option is correct. i.e. D+0.02D

Explanation:

Let the price of the dishwasher be 'D'

Rate of additional tax = 2%

So, Amount of tax will be given by


(2)/(100)* D\\\\=0.02* D\\\\=0.02D

So, Final price of the dishwasher will be


D+0.02D\\\\=1.02D

Hence, Second last option is correct. i.e. D+0.02D
