Question

Rita = 2500
Rita spends all her money on a hi-fi set and 2 years later sells it at a loss of 20%. How much money does Rita have at the end of the two years?

Answer 1

Let the price at which she sells the hi-fi set be x ~

$\huge \bf༆ Answer ༄$

The Money that she lose at the end of 2 years :

• $\sf \: 2500 - x$

Loss percentage is equal to :

• $\sf \dfrac{2500 -x }{2500} \times 100 = 20$

• $\sf \dfrac{2500 - x}{25} = 20$

• $\sf2500 - x = 20 \times 25$

• $\sf2500 - x = 500$

• $\sf - x = 500 - 2500$

• $\sf - x = - 2000$

• $\sf x = 2000$

So, the money she end up getting after selling that hi-fi set is 2500, that is also the money She have at the end of the two years ~
