Let the original price be x

then  

x + 8% of x = 5400  

⇒ x + 8/100 × x = 5400

⇒ 108/100 x = 5400

⇒ x = 5400 × 100/108  

x = 5000

so the price of the hair dryer was 5000 before including vat.

Question

I purchased a hair dryer for ₹5400 including 8%VAT. Find the price before VAT was aaded

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.
