 \textbf {Hey there, here is the solution.}

.............................................................................................

Increase in percentage = 12.5%

Increase in price = ₹5

.

Find the original price:

12.5% = ₹5

1% = 5 ÷ 12.5 = 0.4

100% = 0.4 x 100 = ₹40

.

Answer: The original price is ₹40
