Answer:

Let x be the original price of the shirt. We know that the sale price is 25% off the original price, which means that the sale price is 75% of the original price.

In other words, 0.75x = 45.

To find x, we can divide both sides by 0.75:

x = 45 ÷ 0.75

x = 60

Therefore, the original price of the shirt was £60.
