Answer: 115


SOLUTION 1 :

Soln  :

    Given VAT is 5%

    If the price without VAT is 100, then the price including VAT is 105.

    Now, When price including VAT is 105, original price is 100.

    When price including VAT is 2417, the original price of the suitcase 

                                    =   (100÷105) x 2417

                                    =   2302

                  VAT           =   2417-2302

                                    =     115
