Answer:
Let the price before reducing be Rs. x
According to the question,
⇒ Rs. x - 25% of x = Rs. 35
⇒ x - ( 25x/100 ) = Rs. 35
⇒ x - x/4 = Rs. 35
Taking LCM we get,
⇒ ( 4x - x ) / 4 = Rs .35
⇒ 3x/4 = Rs .35
⇒ x = Rs. 35 × 4/3
⇒ Rs. x = Rs. 140/3 = Rs. 46.67
Therefore the original price of the sugar was Rs. 46.66.
Hope it helped !!
