Question

I purchased a hair dryer for 54000 including 8% VAT find the price before bed was edit​

Answer 1

Answer: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.

some expensive hair dyer btw
