Question

Stuart paid $48.00 for a new tennis racket, which was 64% of the original price.

Answer 1

If 48 $ is 64% of the original

Use the rule of 3:

48 $ ______ 64%

X ______ 100%


64% . X = 48$ . 100%

0,64 . X = 48$ . 1

0,64x = 48$

x = 48$ ÷ 0,64

x = 75 $

Answer 2

The answer would be 75. The original price of the racket is 75.
