Melanie has saved $60 so far to buy a lawn mower. This is 20% of the price of the lawn mower. What is the full price of the lawn mower that she wants to buy?

((please help me as soon as possible and give an explanation thanks!!)

60 + 4*60= full price
$300=full price
I got 4*60 in the equation because 80% is 4 time 20%
The full price of the lawn mower is $300
