    When an item is VAT Inclusive, you want to use 20/120 which is the same as 1/6.
    When an item is VAT Exclusive, you want to use 20%.
    You would use those 2 calculations in determining your VAT Payable or Refundable when doing your VAT Computation.

    accachris is correct, it all depends on whether a figure is given VAT inclusive or exclusive. The question will clearly state this.
