Answer 2

Answer:

Rs 1050

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the expression in the decimal form.

18x100=0.18x

Now the article is purchased including GST it means we have to add the 18% of the price before GST and the original price before GST.

Mathematically it can be written as,

x+0.18x=1239

Solve the equation to evaluate the value of x

1.18x=1239

Divide both sides of the equation by 1.18and evaluate the value of x.

x=12391.18x=1050
