Question

16. The value of a car is depreciating at 5% per year and is * 3,15,875 after 2 years. What was its original price ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

original price = Rs 350000

Step-by-step explanation:

let the original price be x

price after 1 year price will be x - 5%ofx = x - 5x/100 =95x/100

price after 2 years price will be 95x/100 - 5% of 95x/100 = 95x/100 - 19x/400 = 315875

380x-19x=315875×400

361x = 315875×400

x = 126350000/361

x= 350000
