Problema Solution
At a sale this week, a sofa is being sold for $469. This is a 33% discount from the original price.
What is the original price?
Answer provided by our tutors
If the current price is 33% discounted, that shows us that the original price was 100%. The current one is 67%.
So, 67% of X = 469, where x was the original price.
(67x)/100 = 469
Cross multiply (469*100) equals 67x.
X = 700.
