Question

I hate I was purchased for rupees 5400 including 8% VAT find the price before VAT was added

Answer 1

Let the price be: ₹100
VAT: 8%
=8/100×100=₹8
Total money paid = 100+8=108
If the price is ₹108, then the cp: 100
If the price is ₹1 then cp: 100/108
If the price paid is = 5400 then cp: 100/108×5400
=50×100
=5000

Question

I was purchased for rupees 5400 including 8% VAT find the price before VAT was added

Answer : 5000

Solution

Price after 8% VAT = 5400

If the initial price=x

VAT = 8%

Final price = $x+ \frac{8 x}{100}$

$= \: x \: ( \frac{108}{100} )$

Given:- $\frac{108 x}{100} = 5400$

⇒ x =$\frac{ 5400×100}{108} = 5000$

=5000

∴ The price of hair dryer before VAT was added =5000Rs.
