Answer 1

Answer: The cost of new SUV is $20,000.

Explanation:

As per given , we have

The price of used SUV is $12000.

Also, She paid 60% of the price of a new SUV.

Let the price of the new SUV be x, then we have

60% of x = $12000

`\Rightarrow\ (60)/(100)* x =\$12000\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=(\$12000)/(60)*100\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\$20,000`

Hence, the cost of new SUV is $20,000.
