Question

Amy buys a pair of running shoes for 57.37durring a 40% off sale what was the original price?

Answer 1

Let x = original price


The word problem then translates to


x - 0.4x = 57.37


Now solve for x


x - 0.4x = 57.37


0.6x = 57.37


x = 57.37/0.6


x = 95.6167


Now round to the nearest cent to get x = 95.62


So the original price was $95.62
