Answer 1

Answer:

HEY!!! PLS MARK THIS AS BRAINLIEST.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price.

x + ($\frac{20}{100}$ × x) = 1200

x + $\frac{x}{5}$ = 1200

$\frac{5x + x}{5}$ = 1200

$\frac{6x}{5}$ = 1200

x = $\frac{1200 * 5}{6}$

x = 1000

So the original price of ticket from Delhi to Mathura was Rs. 1000.
