Answer:
940
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>To find the original price of something that been discount do the following:</em>
- <em>Subtract the discount from 100 to get the percentage of the original price.</em>
- <em>Multiply the final price by 100.</em>
- <em>Divide by the percentage in Step One.</em>
<em>Or we can do the following:</em>
<em>We shall consider the original price as x; hence the discount can be considered as (x−263.20). We can write the equation:</em>
<em>x · 72/100=x - 263.20</em>
<em>x · 18/25 = x - 263.20</em>
<em>Multiply both sides by 25</em>
<em>18x = 25(x - 263.20)</em>
<em>Open the brackets.</em>
<em>18x = 25x-6580</em>
<em>Add 6580 to each side.</em>
<em>6580 +18x = 25x</em>
<em>Subtract 18x from each side.</em>
<em>6580 = 7x</em>
<em>Subtract 7x from each side.</em>
<em>x = 940</em>
<em>Check Answer:</em>
<em>940 * 72% = 676.80</em>
<em>940 - 676.80=263.20</em>
<em>Hence, the regular price is 940.</em>

Given:
Mrs. Kato has 6 bags of dried beans and a 2-pound bag of rice in one shopping bag.
In another shopping bag she has a 5-pound bag of flour.
The two shopping bags weigh the same amount.
To find:
The weight of each bag of dried beans.
Solution:
Let x be the weight of each bag of dried beans.
So, weight of 6 bags of dried beans = 6x.
According to the question,
Weight of first bag = (6x + 2) pounds
Weight of second bag = 5 pounds
The two shopping bags weigh the same amount. So,
Divide both sides by 6.
Therefore, the weight of each bag of dried beans is 0.5 pounds.
