Question

3. Rahul bought an article for *2,240 which included GST of 12%. What is the
price of the article before GST was added?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The price of the article before GST was added is 2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price of the article be Rs. 100.

GST = 12%

Price after GST is included = Rs. 100 + Rs. 12 = Rs. 112

When the selling price is Rs. 112 then original price = Rs. 100

When the selling price is Rs. 2240, then original price = 100 / 112 × 2240 = 2000
