Answer:$2.25

Explanation:

75% of 9

75/100 x 9/1

(75x9) ➗ (100x1)

675 ➗ 100=6.75

Original price =9-6.75

Original price =2.25

Answer:

36

Explanation:

If the sale price is 75% off then we pay 100-75 = 25

We pay 25% of the original price

Let op = original price

op * 25% = 9

op *.25 = 9

Divide each side by .25

op *.25/.25 = 9/.25

op =36

The original price was 36
