Answer 1

Given :- Mrs. Maharjan bought a refrigerator for Rs 26,442

with 13%VAT. How much did she pay for the VAT ?

Solution :-

Let us assume that, price of refrigerator without VAT was Rs.x .

so,

→ x + 13% VAT on x = 26442

→ x(100 + 13)% = 26442

→ x * 113/100 = 26442

→ x = (26442 * 100)/113

→ x = 23400

therefore,

→ Value of VAT = 25442 - 23400 = Rs.3042 (Ans.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

SOLUTION : HERE ;

X+X OF 13%=26442

x+(13x/100) = 26442

(100x + 13x)/100 =26442

(113x)/100=26442

113x = 26442*100

113x = 2644200

x =2644200/113

x= 23400

now,

value of vat = 26442-23400

                  = 3042 #
