Question

An appliance store decreases the price of a​ 19-in. television set 25​% to a sale price of $ 474.75 . What was the original​ price?

Answer 1

$633.00

Explanation:

Decreasing the price 25% makes the new price be 75% of the original:

$474.75 = 0.75×(original price)

original price = $474.75/0.75

original price = $633.00
