Question

Griffin’s General Store is having a 30% off sale on fans. Robert paid $24. 50 for a fan that was on sale. What is the original price of the fan?.

Answer 1

$35.71

Explanation:
Since Griffin’s General Store is having a 30% off sale on fans, it simply means that fans are paying for (100%-30%)= 70%.
Let the original price be x;
Therefore, 70% of x equal to $25;

70/100x = 25
0.7x = 25

x = 35. 71
