Question

Find the original price of a pair of shoes if the sale price is $60 after a 60% discount.

What is the original price?

Answer 1

The sale price is $60 after a 60% discount ( that mean 100% - 60% = 40% )
⇒ The original price is: $60 ÷ 40% × 100% = $150

Answer: $150
Ok done. Thank to me :>

Answer 2

The original price was $100

Explanation:

`(60 dollars)/(x) = (60 percent)/(100 percent) \\x = (100percent*60dollars)/(60 percent)\\ x = 100 dollars`
