Question

A person bought a microwave for ₹4400 including a tax 10% . Find the price of microwave before VAT was added.

Answer 1

Answer:

x=4000 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the microwave without VAT be x

Selling Price (S) = 4400

Tax (T) = 10 %

Therefore we have,

$\frac{(100+T)x}{100} =4400$

(100+10)x = 440000

110x = 440000

x=4000  Rs

Hence the original price of the microwave was 4000 rupees
