Question

Luke buys a television that is on sale for 1/4 off the original price original price is $120 more than the sale price is what is the original price of the television

Answer 1

$180

Explanation:

We know that 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%.

100% - 25% = 75%.

We know that 75% = 0.75 as a decimal value.

Original price is $120 more than the sale price.

Let x + $120 = original price

$120 = 0.75x

$120 ÷ 0.75 = x

$160 = x

Original price = $120 + $160 or $180.
