Question

A store is having a 20% off sale. If the reduced price of an item is $113.60,What was its original price?

Answer 1

"reduced price" means the price of this item was 80% of its original price

Let's suppose the original price was x

Then
0.8x=113.6


Solve for x:
x=113.6÷0.8=142$

Hence the original price was 142$

I hope that helps!

Answer 2

the answer would be 142 dollars that is the original price.
