Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Cost of refrigerator inclusive of VAT is = Rs 13750

VAT = 10%

Let us consider the original cost of refrigerator be = Rs x

VAT at the rate of 10% on Rs x = Rs 10/100 × x = Rs 10x/100

So,

x + 10x/100 = 13750

(100x+10x)/100 = 13750

110x/100 = 13750

11x/10 = 13750

11x = 13750 × 10

x = 137500/11

= 12500

∴ Original cost of the refrigerator is Rs 12500
