Total billed amount of fridge including VAT = $480
Let us assume the price of the fridge before the VAT is added = $x.
20% of VAT is added.
20% of x is 0.20x.
Total amount = 480.
Let us set an equation to find the value of x.
<h3>x+0.20x = 480.</h3>
1.20x = 480.
Dividing both sides by 1.20, we get
1.20x/1.20 = 480/1.20
x= 400.
<h3>Therefore, $ 400 is the price of the fridge before the VAT added.</h3>
Answer:
s=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
13+8s-6=-1
7+8s=-1
-7
8s=-8/8

36 + x = 144
144-36= 108
square root of 108 is, around 10.4
If you mean as an improper fraction, you multiply the whole number by the denominator then add the numerator to get 5/4. If you mean to a decimal, then 1.25.
