$\fbox\purple{Given~:}$

Alok bought a t-shirt for Rs 770, including 10% sales tax and a jacket for Rs 4480 including 12% sales tax.

$\fbox\green{To~Find~:}$

Find the list price, that is without sales tax of the shirt and jacket together.

$\fbox\red{Solution~:}$

• Let the list price be Rs. 100 in both cases .

Then ,

Shirt : When the price including VAT is ⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rs. 110 ,

⠀⠀⠀⠀ listed price = Rs. 100

•°• When the price including VAT is Rs. ⠀⠀ 770,

⠀⠀listed price = $Rs. \frac{100}{112} \times 770 = Rs. 700$

Jacket : Listed price = $Rs. \frac{100}{112} \times 4480 = Rs.4000$

Hence , total list price of shirt and jacket

= Rs. 700 + Rs. 4000 = Rs. 4700 .
