Answer 2

${\bold{\underline{\boxed{Answer\:16,875}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price = Rs 13500

Loss % = 20%

Let the cost price be x.

∴ Loss = 20% of x

Cost price − Loss = Selling price

$\implies \: x-\frac{20}{100}\times \: x = 13500 \\ \implies x - \frac{1}{5}x = 13500 \\ \implies \frac{4}{5}x = 13500 \\ \implies \: x=13500 \times \frac{5}{4}$

= 16875

Therefore, she bought it for Rs 16875.
