Question

after allowing 15% discount on the price of an article and 13% bat was live and the remaining amount in the price of article becomes 13447 find the market price of an article​

Answer 1

14000

Explaination:

spwithvat = sp without vat + 13% of sp without vat

let, sp without vat be x.

sp with vat= x + 13% of x.

or, 13447 = x + 13/100 × x

or, 1344700 = 113x

or, x= 1344700/113

x = 11900

Let, mp be y.

sp with vat = mp - 15% of mp

or, 11900 = y - 15/100 × y

or, 1190000 = 85y

or, y= 1190000/85

y= 14000
