Question

The sales tax on a refrigerator at the rate of 9% is Rs. 1,170. Find the actual sale price. (Please help me,I'm helpless)

Answer 1

The actual sale price of refrigerator is Rs. 13,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sales tax rate = 9%

Amount of sales tax = Rs. 1170

Let,

x be the original price of refrigerator.

9% of x = 1170

$\frac{9}{100}x=1170\\0.09x=1170$

Dividing both sides by 0.09

$\frac{0.09x}{0.09}=\frac{1170}{0.09}\\x=13000$

The actual sale price of refrigerator is Rs. 13,000
