Answer 1

VAT = 12.5%

Find the marked price including VAT

Marked Price = 100%

Marked Price including VAT = 100 + 12.5 = 112.5%

Find the marked price:

Marked Price including VAT = 112.5%

Marked Price including VAT = Rs 9000

112.5% = Rs 9000

1% = 9000 ÷ 112.5 = Rs 80

100% = 80 x 100 = Rs8000

Answer: The Marked Price is Rs 8000

The answer is 7875

9000×12.5÷100=1125


9000-1125(tax value)=7875
