Question

Hook bought a sofa on sale for $528 this price was 36%less than the original price. What was the original price?

Answer 1

$825

============

To find the original price of the sofa, we need to determine the price before the 36% discount.

We can set up the equation:

• x - 0.36x = 528

Combining like terms, we get:

• 0.64x = 528

Dividing both sides by 0.64, we find that the original price is $825.
