Answer 1

1,600 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 - 20 % = 1,600 Rs.

Answer 2

$Given \: Selling \:price \:of \:fora \:watch$

$s.p = Rs \:2000$

$Discount (d) = 20\%$

$Let \: the \: original \:price \: of \: the \: watch = x$

$x = \frac{s.p \times 100}{ 100 - d }$

$= \frac{ 2000 \times 100 }{ 100 - 20 }$

$= \frac{ 200000}{80}$

$= Rs \:2500$

Therefore.,

$\red{ Original \:price \:of\:the \:Watch } \green { = Rs \:2500}$
