Answer:

The price before vat is 1,425

Step-by-step explanation:

I. When total price = price + vate*price

           So 1,539 = x + 0.08 + x   => when 0.08 is 8/100 or 8 percent

                 1,539 = 1.08x

                      x = 1,539/1.08

                      x = 1,425

II. Prove by replace x.value with 1,425

                 1,539 = 1,425 + 0.08(1,425)

                 1,539 = 1,425 + 114

                 1,539 = 1539 true

Hope that help :)
