SQL column update with a calculation

Question

How can I update the values in SQL column using multiplication and then divide it again?

Values of column "price" need to be updated with "price" multiplied by 1.08 and then "price" divide by 1.077

Thanks a lot for the help Andreas

Answer 1

Simply chain the arithmetic:

update t
    set price = price * 1.08 / 1.077;

Multiplication and division can be done in the same operation.
