​

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{ \red{ \large{ Given}}}$

• The price of the refrigerator was Rs. 5000 last year.
• Increases by 20% this year.

$\mathfrak{ \underline{ \underline{ \large{To \: find}}}}$

• The present price of the refrigerator.

$\mathfrak{ \large{ \purple{ \underbrace{ ✿Solution!!}}}}$

As, 20% increased by this year,

Then,

$\sf{If \: the \:old \: price \: is \: Rs.100 \: present \: price \: is \:Rs. 120}$

$\sf{If \: the \:old \: price \: is \: Rs.1 \: present \: price \: is \:Rs. \frac{120}{100} }$

$\sf{If \: the \:old \: price \: is \: Rs.5000 \: present \: price \: is \:Rs. \frac{120 \times 5000}{100} = Rs.6000}$

$\mathcal{ \blue{ Hence \: the \: present \: price \: is \: Rs.6000}}$

Hope you this helps you✌
