Question

Today only, a suit is being sold at a 67% discount. The sale price is $270.60.

What was the price yesterday?

Answer 1

$820.00

Explanation:

x = price yesterday (initital price)

If it is 67% off, then the price is 33% of the initial.

x(.33) = 270.60

divide .37 on both sides

x = 820.00

The price of the suit yesterday is $820.00.
