Salim bought an article for ₹784 which included GST of 12%. What was the price of the article before GST was added?

Correct option is A

Given:

Price including GST = ₹784

GST rate = 12%

Formula Used:

Gross Price = $$\text{Base Price} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{GST\%}}{100}\right)$$​​

Solution:

Base Price =$$\frac{784}{1 + \frac{12}{100}} = \frac{784}{1.12}$$​ = ₹700
