Answer:
==========================================
The Original price is ₹5333.33 .
==========================================
Step-by-step explanation:
==========================================
let the total cost of the item be x
therefore, according to question
price after sales tax = x + 5% of x
= x + 5 / 100*x
= x + x / 20
= 21 x / 20
5600 = 21x / 20
5600 × 20 = 21 x
5600 × 20 / 21 = x
5333.33 = x
