Question

The price of a mobile is Rs. 8600 inclusive of
a 10% General Sales Tax. What is the original
price of the mobile..​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let original price = x

Now, tax=10*x/100

= x/10

Now,

8600=x+x/10

Now equating denomination by cross multiplication

8600=10x+x/10

8600*10=11x

86000/11=x

7818.18=x..... Hence this is original price
