After a 70 % reduction, you purchase a new soft drink machine on sale for ​$192. What was the original price of the soft drink machine? ​?

Mercury:

let's let the original price be x "after a 70% reduction" ---> so the original price, x, minus 70% of x, or in other words, x - 0.70x is equal to 192. can you try solving for x now?
