    (since there is no percentage given i will provide two alternate answers one including percentage and one exclusive of percentage)

    cost of TV inclusive of tax = $500

    we first multiply the tax with total amount

    $500 * 5.5

    = $500 * 55/10

    =$500 * 11/2

    = $250 * 11

    =$2750

    original price of TV = $2750

    alternate answer assuming there is a percentage sign with 5.5

    the amount of tax on TV is 5.5%

    we first multiply the percentage of tax with total amount

    $500 * 5.5/100

    =$27.5

    original price of TV = $500 - $27.5

    = $472.5
