Question

A sporting goods store manager was selling a ski set for a certain price. The manager offered the markdowns​ shown, making the​ one-day sale price of the ski set ​$323. Find the original selling price of the ski set.

Answer 1

Answer:
The original selling price is $520.632
Explanation:
Consider the initial selling price be $x
After marking down 10%,
Final Selling price = Selling price(1-10%)
Selling price = x – 10% of x = x – 0.1x = 0.9x
After marking 30%
Final Selling price = Selling price(1-10%)
Selling price = 0.9x – 0.3*0.9x = 0.9x – 0.27x = 0.63x
According to the question,
0.63x = 328

Therefore, the original selling price is $520.632

Answer 2

Answer:

The original selling price is $520.632

Explanation:

Consider the initial selling price be $x

After marking down 10%,

Final Selling price  = Selling price(1-10%)

Selling price = x – 10% of x = x – 0.1x = 0.9x

After marking 30%

Final Selling price  = Selling price(1-10%)

Selling price = 0.9x – 0.3*0.9x = 0.9x – 0.27x = 0.63x

According to the question,

0.63x = 328

Therefore, the original selling price is $520.632
