Question

Lucy is out shopping and finds a $117.00 television that

was marked down by 10%.
How much was the item originally?

Answer 1

$128.70

Explanation:

To find the original answer, we must find what is 10% of $117.00. Move the decimal one place to the right and 10% is $11.70. Then add both $117.00 and $11.70, which equals $128.70 which was the original price.

Hope this helps!
