Answer 2

Answer:

the flat costs 7.5 lakhs

Explanation:

according to the question we have to solve it this way:
5/8 x + 1/4 x + 4= x

4=5/8 x +1/4 x + x

4= 5/8 x + 2/8 x + 8/8 x

4= 15/8 x

x= 4 divided by 15/8

x= 4 X 8/15

x= 2/15

x= 2 divided by 15

x= 7.5

therefore the cost of flat is 7.5 lakhs
