Answer 2

Answer:

2970₹

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost = 3300

VAT added = 10%

Price before VAT was added = x

$\frac{x}{3300} \times 100 = 10$

we know, Cost given/Total cost X 100 = %

ATQ,

$\frac{x}{3300} \times 100 = 10$

$100x = 3300 \times 10$

$x = 3300 \times \frac{10}{100}$

$x = 330$

$\: before \: vat= 3300 - 330$

=2970₹
