Question

the price of a garment has been reduced by 15% in a sale of ₹306 finds its original price

Answer 1

Given ,
reduced %  r= 15 

We know that S.P  = original price * ( 100 - r ) / 100

original price = S.P * 100/100 - r

                     = 306 * 100 / (100 - 15)

                       = 306 * 100 / 85

                       = 360.
