The original price of the camera was $292.25. I changed 75 percent to a decimal which became 0.75. Then I added $167 plus 0.75 which equals 292.25. When the dollar sign was added, $292.25 was the camera's original price.

Hope I helped! :)

As the camera was at 25% of the original price, this means you've got to multiply this number to by 4 to get the original price.
167*4= 668
Therefore, the camera's regular price is $668
Hope this helps :)
