I purchased a hair dryer for rs 5400 including 8%VAT. Find the price before VAT was added

Answered by admin @



Let the original price be x
then 
x + 8% of x = 5400 
⇒ x + 8/100 × x = 5400
⇒ 108/100 x = 5400
⇒ x = 5400 × 100/108 
x = 5000
so the price of the hair dryer was 5000 before including vat.
