Question

I have homework due tonight and I have no idea how to do this. I’ve tried about everything and it’s all wrong. P.S. THE
ANSWER IS NOT $124.56

The price on an item is $146.54 after a 15% discount. What is the original price?

Answer 1

Answer:

$168.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 146.54 is a discounted price, you are multiplying by a number >1. If you are missing 15% of the original price, just multiply by 1.15 to get the original price. 146.54 x 1.15 = 168.521, which is rounded to 168.52.
