Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 1 to 5 ratio. Since 48 is your result after the deduction, you need to set the unknown variable to x and proportion your answer. you have 4/5ths remaining. Divide 48 by 4 to get your 1 to 5 ratio equivalent. It will be 12. Add this to the price after deduction to get the original price.
