Answer 1

Answer:

The price at which she brought a washing machine is Rs 15882 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price at which Mira brought washing machine be Rs x .

We are given that Mira sells a washing machine for Rs 13500 and she had a loss for 15% which means;

     Cost Price - Loss = Selling Price

          x  -  15% of x = 13500

           x - 0.15*x = 13500

              0.85*x = 13500

                  x = 13500/0.85 = Rs 15,882.35 ≈ Rs 15,882

Therefore, the price at which Mira brought washing machine is Rs 15,882.
