A pair of in-line skates is on sale for $90. If this price represents a 9% discount from the original price, what is the original price to the nearest cent?

Hey!

To solve this, you just need to divide 90 by .9. That will give you 100.

You can also check by finding 9% of 100
(100 times .9)


Hope this helps!
