Answer 1

Answer:

£120

Step-by-step explanation:

If the phone has been discounted by 35%, then it is now 65% of the original price (as 100 - 35 = 65).

Divide the discounted price by 65 to find the amount per 1%, then multiply by 100 to get the original price.

(78 ÷ 65) x 100 = £120

Answer 2

Answer:

It was about $222.86

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) First cross multiply $\frac{78}{x}$ x $\frac{35}{100}$  (new price over original price) x (percent over 100)

2.) 78 x 100 is 7800 and 35 x (x) is just 35x

3.) 35x=7800; So divide by 35 on both sides

4.) You get X= 222.857143 so about $222.86 was the original price
