Answer:
$352.31
Step-by-step explanation:
Appliance store sold the oven for 25% off original price.
Sale price =$281.85
Price of the oven before the discount was applied is
= 25% /100% x $281.85
= 0.25 x $281.85
= $70.46
The appliance was sold at $70.46 less than the original price
Original price
= $70.46 + $281.85
= $352.31
Answer: The price of the oven before the discount is applied is $335.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:
- Discount: 25% = 0.25 (25/100=0.25 , decimal form)
- Sale price = 251.85
- Original price: x
So, if we multiply the original price by 0.75 (full price percentage- discount percentage) we will obtain the sale price:
x (1-0.25) = 251.85
Solving for x:
x 0.75 = 251.85
x = 251.85/0.75
x= $335.8
