Given:-

Ravi bought a T-shirt for ₹220 after getting 12%discount .

To find:-

What was the price of the T-shirt before the discount?

Solution:-

Cost price of a T- shirt =₹220

Discount on it=12% of original price

Let the original price be ₹ X

=>12% of X

=>12/100(X)

=>3X/25

Cost price =Original price- discount

=>220=X-(3X/25)

=>220=(25X-3X)/25

=>220=22X/25

=>22X=220×25

=>X=(220×25)/22

=]X=250

Answer:-

Original price of T-shirt=Rs. 250
