उत्तर

The original price of a washing machine which was bought for Rs 13,500 inclusive of 8% VAT is Rs 12,500.

Explanation:

Let ₹ x be the original price of washing machine.

C.P. of machine = ₹ 13,500

VAT = 8%

`\implies "₹"  13,500 = "₹" (x + x xx 8/100)`

`\implies "₹"  13,500 = "₹" (27x)/25`

`\implies 13,500 xx 25/27 = x`

`\implies` x = 12,500

Thus, the original price of washing machine is ₹ 12,500.
