Question

On increasing the price of a bed sheet by 20%, It becomes 4200 what is it's original price?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs.3500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be x.

Increased price = Rs.4200

=> (100+20)% of x = 4200

=> 120% of x = 4200

=> 120/100 x = 4200

=> x = 3500

Hence, the original price is Rs.3500.
