Let x be the selling price of the property, then we know that the 5% of x is $1,625.

Now, recall that the n% of an amount can be computed by multiplying the amount by

[tex]\frac{n}{100}\text{.}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]x\times\frac{5}{100}=1625.[/tex]

Solving the above equation for x, we get:

[tex]x=\frac{1625\times100}{5}\text{.}[/tex]

Simplifying the above result, we get:

[tex]x=32500.[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]32500[/tex]

dollars.
