प्रश्न

After a 20% hike, the cost of Chinese Vase is Rs 2000. What was the original price of the object?

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Let the original price of the object be x.
According to the question, we have: 
20 % of x + x = 2000
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{20x}{100} + x = 2000\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{120}{100}x = 2000\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = \frac{200000}{120}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 1666 . 67\]
Thus, the original price of the object was Rs 1, 666 . 67 .
