Question

. When Rao ordered some medicines the price
was 840, which included 12% GST. What was the price of the medicines before tax?
​

Answer 1

Given,

GST included final price = Rs. 840

GST percentage = 12%

To find,

Price before the GST inclusion.

Solution,

We can easily solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.

Let, the price before including GST = Rs. x

GST amount = x × 12/100 = 6x/50 = Rs. 3x/25

Final price = Rs. x + 3x/25

According to the data mentioned in the question,

x + 3x/25 = 840

28x/25 = 840

28x = 840×25

x = (840×25)/28

x = 750

Hence, the initial price was Rs. 750

Answer 2

Answer:

750

Step-by-step explanation:

1)840=x+3/25

840=4/25

4×25=840

840-90=750

2)750/100×6=45
