Question

After a 20% hike, the cost of Chinese vase is Rs. 2000. What was the original price of object​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the original price be p

therefore p + 20%p = 2000

p + 20p/100 = 200

p + p/5 = 2000

6p/5 = 2000

p = (2000 * 5) / 6

p = 10000 / 6

p = 1666.67
