Question

Devin bought a new car

for $19,024 and it was
20% off. Determine the
original price of the car.

Answer 1

$23780

Explanation:

Given data

Let the original price be x

discount= 20%

price= $19,024

so that

20/100*x=x-19,024

0.2x= x-19,024

19,024=x-0.2x

19,024=0.8x

x= 19,024/0.8

x=23780

Hence the original price is $23780
