Question

7) Original price: ?
Discount: 25%
Sale price:
$28

Answer 1

37.3

Explanation:

The original price = x which represents 100% of the price. So we subtract 100%-25, which is 100-25=75 or 75%(0.75)

So, $28 is 75% off the original price.

28 divided by .75 = 37.3

Then, 37.3 would be the original price.

Answer 2

Explanation:

let be x the price before the discount

original price= 28/(1-0.25)=28/0.75=37.33

original price=37.33
