Question

A store is offering a 30% discount off the regular price of summer clothes.

The amount of the discount on a dress is $15. What is the original price of
the dress?

Answer 1

50

Explanation:

use the formula

is/of = %/100

we are given

% =30

is = 15 so

15/x = 30/100

x-> = (15*100)/30 -> = 50

so the orginal price is 50
