Answer:

$43.20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original purchase price, write a proportion and solve. A proportion is an equation where two ratios are set equal.

If the discount if 15% then you pay 85%.

\frac{36.72}{y}= \frac{85}{100}

To solve for y, cross multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction.

36.72(100) = 85y

3672= 85y

43.2 = y
