Answer 1

${ \bold {Answer:}}$

Let the price be 100.

Then, it is increased by Rs.25

New Price= 100+25 = Rs.125

According to the condition:

So, to bring back the price to its original price:

$\bold{\frac{125 - 100}{125} \times 100}$

$= {\bold{ \frac{ \cancel{25}}{ \cancel{125} \: ^{5} }\times 100}}$

$= \bold{20\%}$

Therefore, The new prince should be decreased by 20% so that the price become equal to the original price.
