Question

A reduction of 20% in the price of sugar enables a purchaser to obtain 3kg more for 120 rupees. Find out the original price of sugar per kg

Answer 1

Answer:

50 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

100%-is the original percentage

100%-20%=80%-is the percentage after reduction

80%=120 rupees

100%=120 rupees x 100%/80%=150 rupees

3 kg = 150 rupees

1 kg=150 rupees x 1 kg/3 kg=50 rupees
