Calculation:

Discount = 15% of Rs. 8200

Discount = (15/100) × 8200

Discount = Rs. 1230

Discounted price = Marked price - Discount

Discounted price = Rs. 8200 - Rs. 1230

Discounted price = Rs. 6970

Additional discount = 3% of the discounted price

Additional discount = (3/100) × 6970

Additional discount = Rs. 209.1

Final amount = Discounted price - Additional discount

Rs. 6970 - Rs. 209.1

Rs. 6760.9

Therefore, Tina pays Rs. 6760.9
