the no. of uniforms is 30

the bill of 30 uniforms included discount is 2992.50 $

let the total bill was x (without discount )

so the total bill will be


x-x*(5)/(100)=2992.50
\begin{gathered} (95x)/(100)=2992.50 \\ x=3150\text{ \$} \end{gathered}

so, the AMOUNT OF order before the discount was 3150 $
