Amy paid $70.51 for a pair of shoes during a 20% off sale. What was the regular price?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$84.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not $84.61??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

88.14

OpenStudy (mathteacher1729):

The original price minus (20% of the original price) = 70.51 OR eighty percent of the original price = 70.51 So 0.80*ORIGINAL = 70.51 Divide both sides by 0.80 and ... that's the answer. :)
