Question

A man purchased a dress for ₹5400 including 12% GST. Find the price of the dress before GST was added​

Answer 1

Answer:

here is your answer.....

Answer 2

Let the original price be : Rs X

After GST the price gone up = X + (12/100)X

The equation will be

X + (12/100)X = 5400

X + 3X / 25 = 5400

(25X + 3X)/25 = 5400

28X = 5400 x 25

X = 5400 x 25 /28

X = 2700x25 /14

X = 1350x25 / 7

X = 33750 / 7

X = 4821.42(approx)

Therefore, originally it was Rs 4821.42(approx)
