Answer:

The Price of Home last time it was sold is $2,000,00  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ,

The current price of Home = $220,000

∵ This current price is 10% increase in the last price

Now , Let the last price be = $ x

Again AS per question ,

x + 10% of x = $220,000

x + [tex]\frac{10}{100}[/tex] × x = $220,000

([tex]\frac{110}{100}[/tex]) × x = $220,000

Or, x = ([tex]\frac{220,0000}{11}[/tex])

I.e x = $200000

Hence the Price of Home last time it was sold is $2,000,00   Answer
