Let the cost of the article without tax be x = 100%.
Given that the cost of an article including tax = 15%
= x + 15%
= 100 + 15%
= 115%.
Given that the cost of an article with 15% tax = $138.00
if 115% = 138
Then 100% = 100 * 138/115
= 120.
Therefore the cost of an article without tax = $120.00
Hope this helps!
