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 :
[tex] \implies{\tt{12 \% \: of \: x = 180}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{\dfrac{12}{100} \: of \: x = 180}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{\dfrac{12}{100} \times x = 180}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{\dfrac{12 \times x}{100} = 180}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{\dfrac{12x}{100} = 180}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{x= 180 \times \dfrac{100}{12}}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{x= \cancel{180} \times \dfrac{100}{\cancel{12}}}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{x= 9 \times 100}}[/tex]
[tex] \implies{\tt{x = 900}}[/tex]
Hence, the total amount is ₹900.
