1) Find the percentage difference between 12% and 100%.

100-12= 88%

1a) Put the percentage in its decimal form.

88%/100= 0.88

2) Divide 17.60 by 0.88

17.60/0.88= 20

Therefore, the original price of the lamp is $20.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Original price of the lamp is $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the difference from 100-12, which gives us equal to 88. Then, you divide 100 to use decimal form, 88/100=0.88 or 100/100=1. Divide decimals from left to right. 17.60/0.88=20%. The original price of the lamp is 20, which is our answer.

I hope this helps!
