Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that
M.P. of washing machine =Rs.10900
Rate of VAT =9%
Consider Rs. x as the reduced price of machine
We know that
VAT at the rate of 9%=x×9/100=Rs.9x/100
So the amount paid =x+9x/100=109x/100
By equating the values
109x/100=10900
By further calculation
x=(10900×100)/109
x=10000
Amount reduced by the shopkeeper =10900–10000
=Rs.900
Therefore, the amount reduced by the shopkeeper is Rs.900.
