Question

Roshan bought a product for Rs. 5434 including 4.5% sales tax, find it's price before sales tax. *​

Answer 1

Answer:

let X be the price of product.

X+( 4.5% of X) = 5434

or, X+ 45/1000 × X = 5434

or, X+ 9x/200 = 5434

or, 209x/200=5434

or, 209x= 1086800

or, X=5200

the price of the product before sales tax is rs. 5200
