A jewelry store marked up the price of its well-known necklace. The new price of the necklace is $250, which is 125% of the original price. What was the original price of the necklace?

use the rule of 3 simple and so write $250 mean 125% so 1,25 x mean 100% so 1,00 x = (1*250)/ 1,25 = 200 $200 was the original price hope helped understandably
