Answer:

3/4 times 18= 13.5

31.5-13.5=18  

It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.

It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.

18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5

If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.  

18/x=75/100

75x=18 times 100

75x=1800

75x/75=1800/75

x=24  

The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
