A computer sells for $430 which is 75% reduction of the original price. What is the original price of the computer?

Respuesta :

Divide 430 by 75 to get 1% of the price.
430 / 75 = 5.733333...
Multiply that answer by 100 to get the original price.
5.73333... x 100 = 573.3333...
That will be your answer.

To double check your work, you can multiply 573.333... by 75 to see if the number in the problem (which was 75% of the original price) matches.
573.3333... x 75 = 430.

Hope that helped! :)
