Question

6. Mahesh purchases one shirt of rupees 784 with GST. If GST is 12%, then find

the price of shirt without GST.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

so price of one shirt with GST = 784rs

let x be the amt increased with GST...

so amt without gst is = 784-x

x+ (x)12/100 = 784

(the price without GST) + (the value of GST to be increased) = 784

=>

$\frac{100x + 12x}{100} = 784$

=>

$\frac{112x}{100} = 784$

112×7 = 784

=>

$\frac{x}{100} = 7$

=>

x = 700

so the price without GST is 700rs

Answer 2

Given

Mahesh purchases one shirt for rupees 784 with GST. If GST is 12%,

To find

the price of shirt without GST

Solution

Let the price is 100

given 12% is GST

=> 100 + 12 = 112

price of the shirt is given with GST is Rs 784

So, if 112 % = 784

100 % =?

=> (100 x 784). 112

=> 78400 / 112

=> 700

Hence, the price of the shirt without GST is Rs 700
