Answer 2

Answer:

The total amount is ₹900.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, it is said that 12% of the total amount is ₹108 and we need to find the total amount.

So, let the total amount be x.

Now, according to the question :

$\implies{\tt{12 \% \: of \: x = 180}}$

$\implies{\tt{\dfrac{12}{100} \: of \: x = 180}}$

$\implies{\tt{\dfrac{12}{100} \times x = 180}}$

$\implies{\tt{\dfrac{12 \times x}{100} = 180}}$

$\implies{\tt{\dfrac{12x}{100} = 180}}$

$\implies{\tt{x= 180 \times \dfrac{100}{12}}}$

$\implies{\tt{x= \cancel{180} \times \dfrac{100}{\cancel{12}}}}$

$\implies{\tt{x= 9 \times 100}}$

$\implies{\tt{x = 900}}$

Hence, the total amount is ₹900.
