Question

if something is on sale for 35% off the original price and the sale price is 2.73, what is the original price?

Answer 1

35%*2.75=0.9625

so the answer is 0.96

Answer 2

$4.20, 2.73/65 >>> .042 x 100 >>> answer.

Bonus:
To check it you'd do 4.20/20, then multiply .21 by 13 (65% divided into 5% portions = 13 portions) and your answer will be $2.73.
