3600 ,I think

Step-by-step explanation:

(i calculated the answer in my way ,so it can be different from normal method ,if you want it want answer from any specific method or formula re-ask the question with it's name. )

let , the cost of shoes before discount is x.

x-25%of x = 2700x -  \frac{25}{100}  \times x = 2700

x -  \frac{1}{4}x \:  = 2700 \\ x(1 -  \frac{1}{4} ) = 2700 \\  x( \frac{3}{4} ) = 2700 \\ x =  \frac{2700 \times 4}{3}  \\ x = 3600

hope helps.
