please answer fast​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the garment be Rs. x.

Cost of garment after reducing 15% = Rs.306

Now, according to the question-

x - 15% of x = 306

=> x - ( 15/100 * x) = 306

=> x - 3x/20 = 306

=> 20x - 3x/20 = 306

=>17x = 306* 20

=> 17x = 6120

=> x = 6120/17

=> x = 360

Hence, original price of the garment is Rs.360 .

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the original price be 'x'.

We know that the price of the garment is reduced by 15%.

⇒ x - 15% of x = 306

⇒ x - (15/100) * x = 306

⇒ (100x - 15x)/100 = 306

⇒ 85x = 30600

⇒ x = 30600/85

⇒ x = 360.

Therefore, the original price is 360.

I hope this helps!

Have a good day :)
