Question

The number of units of certain item sold by a company in 2009 is 20% higher than the number of units it sold in 2010. If the number of the units sold in 2009 was 3000 less than that in 2010, how many units did the company sell in 2009?

Items sold (in 2010) - No of items 2009 + 3000

Items sold (in 2010) = 15000 + 3000

Items sold (in 2010) = 18000
