Question

The total bill for a sewing machine is ₹872 if the shopkeeper charge 9%s.t on the list price of the sewing machine find the list price of the sewing machine​

Answer 1

Answer:

800

Step-by-step explanation:

Let list price be x

Bill price = 872

also Bill price = x + 9% of x

                      = 100x/100 + 9x/100

Therefore, the equation is:

• $109x/100 = 872$
• $109x = 872*100$ (By transposition)

• $x = \frac{872 * 100}{109}$  (By transposition)

• x = 8*100 (872/109 = 8)
• x = 800

Therefore list price is 800
