1/3 of an unknown number is 1/3x. The word "of" lets us know to multiply. So if we add 20 to that, and it is equal to double x (that is 2x), the equation looks like this:
1. Start by multiplying everything by 3 to get rid of the fraction and get 20 + 1/3x = 2x.
2. Now subtract an x from both sides and get 60 = 5x and x = 12.
So the answer is 12

Answer:
$243.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use algebra here.
Let x = the original price.
Then 1/3 x - 27 = 54
1/3x = 54 + 27 = 81
x = 81 / 1/3
x = 81 * 3
x = $243 (answer).
