The price of a shirt is reduced by 12% age in a discount sale if the present price is rupees 1188 find the original price

Answer»

The orignal price is 1350 rupees.Explanation:Let us consider that the orignal amount is "X" now the 12% of "X" would be equal to 12 × X ÷ 100 which is reduced from the orignal amount "X" and the FINAL amount is 1188, thus we write it in the form of equation .:X - (X /100)×12 = 1188=> X - 12X /100 = 1188taking LCM on LHS(100X - 12X)/100 = 1188=> 88X/100 = 1188X = (1188 ×100)/88 = 1350
