━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✤ How to solve?

In the question we need to calculate the original price of the computer . It is given to us that the price of the computer after including value-added tax is 4% .

Here the concept of Value added tax has been used. We know that we can calculate the original price of the computer by applying the formula :- Sale price / 100 + vat % × 100 .

☕ Original Price:-

$\dag\:\underline{\boxed{\bf{\orange{Original \: Price= \frac{sale \: price \times 100}{100 + vat\%} }}}}$

Now let's solve it !

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✤ Solution :

We know that

• Sale price = 37960 rs
• vat % = 4

Now by applying the formula of Original price

${{\sf: \Longrightarrow{{Original \: Price= \dfrac{sale \: price \times 100}{100 + vat\%}}}}}$

Let's put the value !

${{\sf: \Longrightarrow{{Original \: Price= \dfrac{37960 \times 100}{100 + 4}}}}}$

${{\sf: \Longrightarrow{{Original \: Price= \dfrac{3796000}{104}}}}}$

${{\sf: \Longrightarrow{{Original \: Price= \orange{rs.36500}}}}}$

☀️ Hence, solved !!
