Question

.. The sales price of a washing machine, inclusive of
GST, is 28,320. If the SGST is charged at the rate of
9% of the list price, find the list price of the washing
machine.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

GST = CGST +SGST

CGST = SGST

SGST = 9%

hence, CGST = 9%

GST =9%+9%

GST =18%

let the list price of the washing machine be x

x+18 % of x = 28,320

x+18x/100 =28,320

100×x+18x/100=28,320

100x+18x/100=28,320

118x/100 =28,320

x=28,320×100/118

x=24,000 RS

the list price of the washing machine is 24,000 RS
