Question

On reducing the value of a chair by 6% it becomes 658 the original value of the chair is with full solution

Answer 1

Answer:

Original value = Rs. 700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original value be x

then, x - 6% of x = 658

or, x - 6/100 * x = 658

or, x - 3x/50 = 658

or, (50x - 3x)/50 = 658

or, 47x = 658 * 50

or, x = 658 * 50

47

or, x = 14 * 50

i.e. x = 700

Hence,

The original value is Rs. 700
