Question

A new television is on sale for $680.00, which is 20% off of its original price. What was the original price of the television?

Answer 1

Original price of the television = $850

Explanation:

Television price on sale = $680.00

% of sale = 20%

It means price on sale = 80% = $680.00

Original price of the television = 100% = ?

Price on 1% = 680/80 = $8.5

Original price of the television = 100% = $8.5 x 100

= $850
