Question

I bought a case of water for 80% of the original price. I paid $4.80 for the case, what was the original cost?

Answer 1

Divide the amount you paid by the percentage:

4.80 / 0.80 = 6

The original cost was $6.00

Answer 2

Answer:

Divide the amount you paid by the percentage to get the full percentage of the answer

4.80 / 0.80 = 6

The original cost was $6.00

To make sure your answer is correct do 4.80/6 = 0.80

Also do 0.80 multiplied by 6 = 4.80. do you see the rhythm, it’s a loop a correct one :)
