If your profit in a deal was 15% and you got rupees 120 the deal was worth

If you would like to know how much was the deal worth, you can calculate this using the following steps:

15% of the deal is 120

15% * x = 120

15/100 * x = 120 / * 100/15

x = 120 * 100 / 15

x = 800

Result: The deal was worth 800.

Percentage of profit made on the deal = 15%

Amount of profit made on the deal = rupees 120

Let us assume the deal was worth the amount = x

Then we can get the equation as

15x/100 = 120

15x = 120 * 100

15x = 12000

x = 12000/15

= 800 rupees

So the deal was worth 800 rupees. Most of the required information’s are already given in the question. Only thing is using those information’s to get to the required answer.
