Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price=marked price-discount

The price after giving a discount or

Selling price = x - 20% of x = 4x/5

Now,

VAT amount = VAT% of Selling Price

83.20 = 13% of 4x/5

→ 83.20 = (13/100) * 4x/5

+ x = (83.20 * 100 * 5)/(13 * 4) = 41600/52

= Rs. 800

Thus, the marked price of the cap is Rs.

800.
