Answer 2

Answer:

Let the original price of the article be ₹ x

Reduction in price =

⟹ 20% of ₹ x

$⟹ ₹ \dfrac{20}{100} \times x$

$⟹ ₹ \dfrac{x}{5}$

★ Reduced price $⟹ ₹ (x - \dfrac{x}{5} ) = ₹ \dfrac{4x}{5}$

Reduced price⟹ ₹ 4000

⟹$\dfrac{4x}{5} = 4000$

⟹$x = \dfrac{4000×5}{4}$

⟹ x = 5000

Hence the original price of the article is ₹5000
