To solve this problem we can use the expression that defines percents. What price has a 75% of $90?

$\text{Total}\cdot\frac{\text{percent}}{100}=\text{equivalent number to the percent}$

With the information given, we know that the equivalent number to the percent is $90 and the percent is 75%.

Then, substitute and solve for the total variable:

$\begin{gathered} \text{Total}\cdot(75)/(100)=90 \\ \text{Total}=(90\cdot100)/(75) \\ \text{Total}=120 \end{gathered}$

The original price of the swing set is $120.
