1. rs.(100+a)/413000
2. rs.(413000)/100-a
3. rs.(41300)/100+a
4. rs.(413000)/100+a​

Answer 1

Answer:

The list price in terms of a is 413000/(100 + a).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say List price of the article = L

10% discount = 10/100 x L = 0.1 L

Selling price of article = L - 0.1 L = 0.9 L

a Percent Gst on selling price = (a/100) 0.9 L

Consumer paid = 0.9 L + (a/100)0.9 L = 3717

0.9 L(1 +a/100) = 3717

L (100+a)/100 = 413

L = 413000/(100 + a)

Thus the list price in terms of a is 413000/(100 + a).
