Answer 1

Answer:

rs.51,200

Step-by-step explanation:

value of the scooter in 2016

= rs.80,000 - 20% of rs.80,000

= rs.80,000 - 20/100 × rs.80,000

= rs.80,000 - rs.16,000

= rs.64,000

value of the scooter in 2017

=rs.64,000- 20% of rs.64,000

= rs.64,000 - 20/100 × rs.64,000

= rs.64,000 - rs.12,800

= rs.51,200

Therefore the value of the scooter after 2 years is rs.51,200
