Question

Find the original price of a washing machine which was bought at Rs.13500 after paying 8% GST.​

Answer 1

let the original price be x

GST = 8%

Price after adding tax = 13500

=> x + 8/100 × x = 13500

=> 108 x /100 = 13500

=> x = 13500×100/108

=> x = 12500

Hence , original price was Rs 12500
