Tom paid $245.97 for a laptop. This was 3/5 of the original price. What was the original price?

Let's make the mysterious, original price not-so-mysterious by calling it <em>x. </em>245.97 is 3/5 of x.

We can equation this.

245.97 = 3/5x

x = 245.97 / (3/5)

x = 409.95

The answer, I believe, is $409.95. Hope this helps!

m - 9 = 42

42 is our final answer so that should be by itself.

If something is being decreased by 9, that means that we are taking away 9 from something so it should be m - 9.
