Question

jhuie sells a washing machine for 13,500 she loses 20 % in the bargain what was the price at which she bought it

Answer 1

Let the price at which she brought it be x.
A/Q
x - 20% of x = 13,500.
x - 20 × x/100 = 13,500.
x - x/5 = 13,500.
(5x - x)/5 = 13,500.
4x/5 = 13,500.
4x = 13,500 × 5
x = (13,500 × 5)/4
x = 3375 × 5
x = 16875.
