Question

7. After a discount of 30%, you pay $49.00 for a video game. What was the original price of the game?

Answer 1

$70.00

Explanation:

Percentage of original price paid

= 100% -30%

= 70%

70% of original price ----- $49.00

1% of original price ----- $49.00 ÷70= $0.70

100% of original price ----- $0.70 ×100= $70.00
