Ivanna bought a sofa on sale for $316.80. This price was 64% less than the original price. What was the original price? (FROM ALEKS)

Respuesta :

36%=316.80
100%=x
Cross multiply
if it is 64% off, then ur actually paying 36%...
36% of the original price is 316.80....
0.36x = 316.80
x = 316.80 / 0.36
x = 880 <== the original price
