please give step-step explanation​

Answer 1

Answer:

$rs.60000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's the value be x

$x(15\% \times x) = 51000$

$x -(15 \div 100 \times x) = 51000$

$x - 3x \div 20 = 51000$

$(2x - 3x) \div 20 = 51000$

$17x \div 20 = 51000$

$x = 51000 \times 20 \div 7$

$x = 3000 \times 20$

$x = 60000$
