If the price of an article is rs 945 including 5% GST, then its original price is _____?

Explanation

To find the original price, we need to remove the GST amount from the inclusive price.

Price including GST = Rs. 945

GST percentage = 5%

First, convert the GST percentage to a decimal: 5% = 0.05

Then, divide the price including GST by (1 + GST decimal):

Rs. 945 ÷ (1 + 0.05) = Rs. 945 ÷ 1.05 = Rs. 900
