⭐What was the price she bought??⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf{\bold{\purple{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}$

From the question, it is given that

Selling price of washing machine = 13500$

Percentage of loss = 20%

Now, we have to find the cost price washing machine

By using the formula, we have:

$\tt{\boxed{\orange{C.P=\dfrac{100}{(100-lose\%)}×S.P}} }$

$\rightsquigarrow$ ⟹ $\tt{\dfrac{100}{(100-20)}×13500}$

$\rightsquigarrow$ ⟹ $\tt{\dfrac{100}{80}×13500}$

$\rightsquigarrow$ ⟹$\tt{\dfrac{1350000}{80}}$

$\rightsquigarrow$ ⟹$\tt{\dfrac{\cancel{1350000}}{\cancel{80}}}$ 

$\rightsquigarrow$ ⟹$\tt{\dfrac{135000}{8}}$

$\rightsquigarrow$$\pink{16875}$$

$\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{Answer}}}}}$

$\rightsquigarrow$ $\rightsquigarrow$ $\rightsquigarrow$ $\rightsquigarrow$ 16875$ was the price at which she bought it.
