Answer 1

Answer:

The price at which Rita purchased the bicycle is Rs. 5000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sita purchased = Rs. 5000

Let Gita bought from Rita at Rs. x.

So, 80x/100 = 5000

=> 4x/5 = 5000

=> x = Rs. 6250

So, Rita sold to Gita = Rs. 6250

Let the price at which Rita purchased be Rs. y.

So, 125y/100 = 6250

=> 5y/4 = 6250

=> y = Rs. 5000

So, the price at which Rita purchased the bicycle is Rs. 5000.
