Question

Jerry says that if a store has a sale for 35% off and the sale price of a stairmaster is $137, then you can figure out what the original price was by taking 35% of 137 and adding it back onto the $137. So the original price should be $184.95. But that answer doesn't check. Why

Answer 1

Don't know if it's right, but do let me know! use percentage to visualise your workings. :)
