Answer 2

Given:

We have given that A customer paid 22,400 for a TV set including 12% GST.

To Find:

We have to find the original selling price?​

Step-by-step explanation:

• We have given the customer is purchasing a TV set for the rupees 22,400.
• Which means the total price the customer has paid for Tv including the GST is rupees 22,400.
• Now we have the GST percentage is 12% of the value.
• Let the original selling price of the TV be x rupees.
• Now the 12% of x will be calculated as

       $12\% of x=\frac{12}{100} x$

• Now we have given the total amount is paid 22,400 which must be equal to the original price plus GST.

       $x+\frac{12x}{100} =22,400$

• Now take the L.C.M of the Left-hand side of the equation and simplify the equation.

       $\frac{100x+12x}{100} =22,400\\\frac{112x}{100} =22,400$

• Now cross-multiply the equation to simplify the equation.

       $112x=22,400\times100$

• Now take the value 112 to right hand side and solve it.

       $x=\frac{22,400\times100}{112} \\x=800\times25\\x=20000$

Hence, the original selling price of TV is rupees 20,000.
