I can see you come from outside the USA. No insults intended!!
.
Anyways, we have to put one side of the ratio and match it to 48. 
.
Or even better...
.
MAKE!!
A!!
PROPORTION!!
.
So... Let's say 7 is proportional to 48... so 7/5 = 48/x, where x is the number equivalent to ratio of 5.
.
Cross multiply!!

</span>7x = 240.
.
Divide 7 on both sides.
.
x = 34 2/7.
.
Hope I helped!!

Answer:

$16,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be paid for the car is shown below:

Since the car would be purchased one year ago

And, the value of the car would be decreased by 15% to $14025

= $14025 × 100 ÷ (100 - 0.15)

= $16,500
