⭐QUESTION:

A person purchased a sweater and saved Rs. 20 when a discount voucher of 25% was provided. Find the price of sweater before discount?

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Now, if we read the question carefully, then we can understand that the money saved by the buyer will be equal to the discount given for the sweater.

Therefore, we can say that Rs. 20 will be equal to 25% of the price of the sweater before discount.

If we convert the language above into equation we will get,

25% of x=20

If we try to solve it further, we can see that,

⇒25% of x=20⇒25×1100×x=20⇒x4=20⇒x=80

As we assumed x to be the price of sweater before discount,

So, the price of a sweater bought by Rahul before discount is Rs. 80.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the price of sweater before discount be x

$2 5 \times \frac{1}{100} \times x = 20$

$\frac{x}{4} = 20$

$x = 80$

Therefore, the price of sweater before discount is 80rs
