An investor bought shares at certain value. After a fall in price of the share by X%, the investor has to wait 1.25X times the increase in the price of the shares to get the original invested amount.
What is the value of X ?

• x=20%
  
  If p is the price, then
  p*0.8*1.25 = p

• Let share price = p
  
  so decrease in price of share will be : p- px/100
  
  so original price of p = decreased share price * 1.25x
  
  p= (p-(px/100) * 1.25x)
  
  Solve this you will get : x=20
