First off,

If 20% of the original price is $15 you basically need to find the rest of the percentage.

100% - 20% = 80%

Next, you need to divide $15 by %80.
= $18.75

You can test to see if this is right by multiplying $18.75 by %20. Which should give you, 3.75( the amount of discount). $18.75 - $3.75 = $15.


Answer: Regular price was $18.75.

it was 75 dollars because 15=20% and 20 x 5=100 so 15 x 5=75
