Question

At a sale this week, a table is being sold for
$336
. This is a
36%
discount from the original price.

What is the original price?

Answer 1

the number 1 is your friend here

Answer 2

$215.04

Answer 3

well the actual price is 100 - 36 or 64% of the original price.

so then 64% = $336

find the value of 1% by dividing both sides by 64

then multiply by 100 to get 100%

this will be the original price

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6

sorry

Answer 7

just add 1 to the decimal equivalent (1.36)
do you know what to do with it from there?

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

um that's really not what I was looking for. all you do is 1.36*(sale price)
