Answer 2

Answer:

∴ New price of a sewing machine is Rs. $5600$.

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to question asked,  

• We have to find the new price of a sewing machine.
• It is given that, the initial price of a sewing machine = Rs. $7000$
• Percentage decrease in the price = $20$%
• To find the new price of a sewing machine after $20$% decrease in the price, we  have to calculate $20$% of initial price.

        $20$% of $7000=\frac{20}{100} \times 7000$

                         = $20\times 70$

                         = Rs. $1400$

• Now, subtract the decreased price from initial price to get the new price of a sewing machine.

            New price of a sewing machine = $7000-1400$

                                                          = Rs. $5600$

• ∴ New price of a sewing machine is Rs. $5600$.
