Answer 2

A picnic table is on sale for 40% off. The original price of the picnic table is

x = $144.10

Explanation:

If we have a 40% sale, that means

The price of the product will be its original price minus 0.4 multiplied by the original price

New price = (x) - 0.4*(x)

New price = 0.6*(x)

If the original price was $144.10

New price = 0.6*$144.10 = $86.46
