The value of a professional basketball player's autograph rose 40% in the last year. It is now worth $350.00. What was it worth a year ago?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

worth + .4(worth) = 350, solve for worth

OpenStudy (amistre64):

factor out the worth and divide the excess worth(1.4) = 350 worth = 350/1.4
