Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

It means that we have a value "x".

Sum of this value and profit of it is 215.

Now let's write this in language of mathematics.

[tex]x + \frac{7.5}{100}x = 215[/tex]

Now we can solve for x.

  1. [tex]107.5 x = 21500[/tex]
  2. [tex]x = \frac{21500}{107.5}[/tex]
  3. [tex]x = 200[/tex]
