To remove 20% VAT from a gross price, divide by 1.20. The difference between gross and net is the extracted VAT amount.

What is the difference between VAT inclusive and exclusive?

VAT inclusive means the price already contains the tax; VAT exclusive means tax will be added on top of the listed price.
