A 65-inch HD LCD television is discounted 25% from the original price. If the discounted price is $1799.99, what was the original price of the television?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$2399.99

Step-by-step explanation:

the price of the tv is discounted by 25%

that is the same as saying the tv is 75% of its original price

so we take $1799.99/75 to see what one percent of the price is

$1799.99/75=23.9998

then we take 23.9998*100 to see what the original price was

23.9998*100=2399.986667 and then we round to the nearest hundredth

so 2399.99
