Answer:

$950

Explanation:

26% less than the regular price = 74%

set up the dimensions as:

part/whole = part/whole

$703 goes in part 74% goes in part

703/? = 74%/100%

Then multiply 100 by 703

100 x 703 = 70300

Finally divided by 74

70300 divided by 74 = 950

The regular price = $950

703/950 = 74%/100%
