PROBLEM:

A tax of 10 rupees is deducted if one’s income is strictly larger than 100. Given an income of X, what is the final amount of money you receive?

EXPLANATION:

There are two cases, which can be checked with an if condition.

  • If X \leq 100, then nothing is deducted. So, the final amount is just X
  • Otherwise, X \gt 100, and rupees 10 is deducted. So, the final amount is X - 10.
