Sales price of a sewing machine is Rs. 4248. (Including 16.5% GST). What will be its price without GST?

Rs. 3646.35

Rs. 3535.46

Rs. 2734.13

None of these

To find the price without GST:

Let the original price be x.

The GST amount is 16.5% of x:

GST = 0.165x

The sales price (including GST) is:

4248 = x + 0.165x

4248 = 1.165x

Now, divide by 1.165:

x = 4248 / 1.165

x ≈ 3646.35
