Let x = original price in dollars

x is the original price
9% of this original price is equal to 0.09x

subtract: x - 0.09x = 0.91x

The discount price is equal to 0.91x and it's equal to 90 dollars, so they must be the same value. Ie.

0.91x = 90
0.91x/0.91 = 90/0.91
x = 98.9010989
x = 98.90

So the original price is $<span>98.90</span>

After spending $30 on a dress, Mary had 3/8 of her money left. How much money did she have at first?
BaLLatris [955]
The answer is that she had 48.  Set it up as an equation with x as the amount of money she started with.  x - 30 = 3/8x.  That says, in words, "the amount of money she started with minus 30 for the dress left her with 3/8 of the money she started with.  Solve for x by adding 30 to both sides and subtracting 3/8 from 8/8x (8/8 = 1).  8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8, so 5/8x = 30, multiply both sides by 8 to get 5x=240 and x = 48.
