Answer 2

Given

• VAT :- 10 %
• Price :- ₹ 825

To find

• The basic price of the watch

Solution

Here ,

the price of watch - VAT gives the basic price of watch !!

Let the basic price be x

The VAT would be 10 % of x

→ 10x / 100

As given above ,

⇒ ₹ 825 - 10x / 100 = x

⇒ 825 = x + 10x / 100

⇒ 825 = 110x / 100

⇒ 110x = 825 × 100

⇒ x = 825 × 100 / 110

⇒ x = 750

Therefore , ₹ 750 is the basic price of the watch !!
