Answer:

The discount was rs 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

The item started at an original undiscounted price of x.

Then a 5% discount was applied. The price is now 0.95x.

Then a 10% VAT was applied. The price is now 1.1(0.95x).

The price is now rs 1672.

1.1(0.95x) = 1672

Divide both sides by 1.1 and by 0.95.

x = 1600

The original price was rs 1600.

5% of rs 1600 = 0.05 * rs 1600 = rs 80

The discount was rs 80.
