Question

Enter an equation and an answer to the following question:

Answer 1

Answer:

The original list price be $208.3 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the original list price be x.

As given

if the discount is $25 and the discount rate is 12% .

12% is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{12}{100}$

= 0.12

Than the equation becomes

0.12 × x = 25

$x = \frac{25}{0.12}$

x = $ 208.3 (Approx)

Therefore the original list price be $208.3 .

Answer 2
