1. Answer:

   let cost price of washing machine be x

   selling price of washing machine is 13,500

   loss percent 20

   loss= loss percent of cp

   x= 20÷100

   x=x÷5

   sp= cp-loss

   13500= x-x÷5

   13500=4×x÷5

   x=13500×5÷4

   x=16,875

   hence,cost price of washing machine is 16,875

2. Answer:

   Rs. 16,875

   Step-by-step explanation:

   The selling price of washing machine = Rs. 13500

   Loss percent = 20%

   Let the cost price of the washing machine be Rs. x.

   Loss = Loss% of C.P.

   Loss = 20% of Rs.

   x : 20 /100 × x = x/5

   Therefore, S.P. = C.P. – Loss

   13500= x – x/5 = 13500 = 4x/5..

   x= 13500 × 5/4

   = Rs. 16,875

   Hence, the cost price of washing machine is Rs. 16,875.
