Sp+vat=1656

1656=spx 115/100

sp=1656xloo/115=1440

mp = spx loo/100-Disc

Answer 2

The marked price is Rs.1600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price be x

Discount % = 10%

Price after discount = $x-10\%x=x-0.1x=0.9x$

VAT = 15%

Price including tax = $0.9x+15\%(0.9x)=0.9x+0.15(0.9x)=1.035x$

We are given that  a watch was sold for rs 1656

So,$1.035x= 1656$

$x=\frac{1656}{1.035}$

x=1600

Hence The marked price is Rs.1600
