A number increased by nine.
3. 6m/8
The product of six and a number, divided by eight.
4. 3y+5 =20
The product of three and a number increased by five is equal to twenty.

To get the answer you have to divide the sale price $172.80 by 73%.
So first you turn 73% into a decimal by moving the decimal two places to the left turning it into .73
$172.80 divided by .73 = $236.71
You can check by then multiplying $236.71 with .73
