an aston martin vanquish costs £100,000. if i had to pay VAT (value added tax) on top of this it will cosy me 17% more! how much

likoan [24]

If we take <span>£100,000 as the 100%, then, the VAT will be 17% of that, well
how much is 17% of </span>£100,000 ?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
100,000&100\\
x&17
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{100,000}{x}=\cfrac{100}{17}$

solve for "x"
