Explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

Vat%= 13%

Price after 13% vat = Rs. 2034

Price without vat = x

Then,

Price with vat= price with out vat + vat% of price with vat.


2034 = x + (13)/(100) *x


2034 = (100x + 13x)/(100)


2034 * 100 = 113x


x = (2034 * 100)/(113)

x = Rs.1800.

Therefore, the price without vat is Rs.1800.

Hope it helps...
