Answer:
€9.31
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship of tax to price is ...
... tax : price = 0.19 : 1
Then the relationship of tax to total cost is ...
... tax : (tax + price) = 0.19 : (0.19 +1) = 0.19 : 1.19 = 19 : 119
So, the tax is 19/119 times the total cost. In this problem, ...
... VAT = 19/119 × €58.31
... VAT = €9.31
