Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we need to calculate the price paid by dealer A, including GST.

### Step 1: Identify the cost price for dealer A
Dealer A purchases the article from dealer B for Rs. 5,000.

### Step 2: Calculate the GST on the cost price
The GST rate is 18%. We need to calculate 18% of Rs. 5,000.

\[ \text{GST} = 18\% \text{ of } 5000 = \frac{18}{100} \times 5000 = 900 \]

### Step 3: Calculate the total price including GST
Now, we add the GST to the cost price to find the total price paid by dealer A.

\[ \text{Total Price} = \text{Cost Price} + \text{GST} = 5000 + 900 = 5900 \]

### Step 4: Final price paid by dealer A
The total price including GST that dealer A pays for the article is Rs. 5,900.

### Final Answer
The price (including GST) paid by dealer A is Rs. 5,900.
