Question

meera bought an A.C for ₹22000 including gst of 28% find the price of the A.C. before gst was added​

Answer 1

Let the price of the AC before GST was added = Rs x

Now,

Cost Price + GST = ₹22000

x + 28% of x = ₹22000

x + 28 / 100x = ₹22000

128 / 100 x = ₹22000

x = ₹ ( 22000 x 100 / 128 )

x = 187187.50

Hence,

Price of the AC before GST was added is ₹17187.50

Answer 2

Let the original price be x

GST = 28/100*x = 7x/25

A T Q

x + 7x/25 = 22000

(25x + 7x) / 25 = 22000

32x = 550000

x = 17187.5

✨ Hence, The price of AC before GST was Rs. 17187.5
