Question

Marlo raged and broke his NBA2K23. Target is having a sale for 55% off. The sales price is $33. What was the original price of the game? (enter your answer below)

Answer 1

The original price of the NBA2K23 game was $73.33.

Explanation:

Let the original price of the NBA2K23 game be x.

Marlo purchased the game at a sale price of 55% off, which means he paid 45% of the original price.

45% of x = $33

To solve for x, we can set up the following equation:

0.45x = 33

Dividing both sides by 0.45, we get:

x = 73.33

Therefore, the original price of the NBA2K23 game was $73.33.
