Question

Original Price = ? Percent of Discount = 5% Sale Price = $57

Answer 1

$60

Explanation:

If it's 5% off, the sale price will be 95% of the original price.

you have
`0.95x = 57\\` where x is the original price

solving:

multiply both sides by 100

`95x = 5700`

divide both sides by 95

`x = 60`

The original price is $60
