Question

Refurbished phone 35% of now only 78 pound how much was the phone before the discounted price

Answer 1

120 pound is the full price.

Answer 2

120 pounds

Explanation:

The cost of refurbished phone after 35% off = 78.00 pounds

Let the cost of phone before the discount be x

x - (35% of x) = 78

x -
`(35)/(100)x` = 78

x - 0.35x = 78

0.65x = 78

x =
`(78)/(0.65)`

x = 120

The cost of phone before the discount would be 120 pounds.
