Komok [63]

Given:

Price of new computer at local store = $1,449

This is 18% less than what it costs at the Brownstone Mall.

To find:

The cost of new computer at the Brownstone Mall.

Solution:

Let x be the cost of new computer at the Brownstone Mall.

According to the question,

x-18\%\text{ of }x=1449

x-\dfrac{18}{100}x=1449

x-0.18x=1449

0.82x=1449

Divide both sides by 0.82.

x=\dfrac{1449}{0.82}

x=1767.07317

x\approx 1767.07

Therefore, the cost of new computer at the Brownstone Mall is $1767.07.
