The original price of the laptop is calculated as $545
<h3>How to find the original Price?</h3>
We are given;
Sales Price of Laptop = $299.75
Now, the laptop is on sale for 45% off regular price.
If original price is x, then we can express that;
(100% - 45%) * x = 299.75
Thus;
55%x = 299.75
0.55x = 299.75
x = 299.75/0.55
x = $545
Thus, the original price of the laptop is calculated as $545

Step-by-step explanation:
6185152673 For the second question and 0/0 is unknown for now
For this, we can set up a proportion.
Their aim was 15000, so if they raised 100% of their goal, they wouldve raised exactly 15000.
They raised 557%, so how much did they make?
Proportion:
$15000 100%
$x 557%
Our expression would be x=$15000*557% divided by 100%, which would be $83550, so... a lot of money.
(we did an “x” formation with the proportion, ie “connected” x with 100, and “connected” 15k and 557. The number connecting to x is what we divide the equation by, and the other two are multiplied and then divided by the first number connecting to x. Otherwise we couldve calculated 557% of 15000 and gotten the same result. Whichever way is easier for you :) )
