Cost of the compact disc player = 50 pounds
Percentage of VAT = 17 1/2%
                               = 35/2%
Then
Amount of VAT that needs to be given = (35/2)% * 50
                                                             = (35/200) * 50
                                                             = 1750/200
                                                             = 8.75
So the amount of VAT that has to be given is 8.75 pound
Amount that needs to be paid for the compact disc = (50 + 8.75) pound
                                                                                   = 58.75 pound.
So the total amount that needs to be paid for the compact disc is 58.75 pounds
