Question

Jyotsna bought a product for 3155 rupees including 4.5% sales tax . Find the price before tax was added.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price before the sales tax added be x

4.5% tax added to the price I. E x+4.5%

Sales tax is 4.5% of x

x+4.5x ÷ 100 = 3155 (price before tax+sales tax of price)

Take LCM factor as 100

100x+4.5x÷100=3155

104.5x÷100=3155

x=3155*100*10/1045

x=3019.138
