Answer 1

Answer:

By deducting the VAT the real price is Rs.1534.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We first calculated the VAT that is 10% of the total price...

then we subtracted the Amout from the total amoun that will be:

 VAT  =  10% = Rs.170.5

 Total amount = Rs. 1705

 Real price = Real amount - VAT

                   = 1705 - 170.5

                   = Rs.1534.5

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rs 1705 including VAT at 10%

1705 - 170.5

= 1534.5

therefore the price of the watch before VAT was added is Rs 1534.5
