Question

Kelly paid $54.60 for a bike helmet that was 20% off the original price. What was the original price

Answer 1

Answer:

The original price was 273$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount paid = A = 54.60$

Original Price = Pr = x$

Percentage = p = 20%

The formula to calculate the percentage of a price is

A = Pr * p/100

By putting values in formula, we get

54.60 = x * 20/100

54.60 = x * 1/5

54.60 * 5 = x

273 = x

x = 273$

So, the original price was 273$.
