Question

today only, a sofa is being sold at a 36% discount. The sale price is $560. what was the price yesterday?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let yesterday's price  be x

Discount percentage = 36%

Sale price = $ 560

(100-36)% of x = 560

64 % *x = 560

$\frac{64}{100}*x=560\\\\x=560*\frac{100}{64}\\\\x=875$

Yesterday's price = $ 875
