Currently the car is worth $12,780. This is 72% of the original price. Therefore, we get the following:

72 % = $12,780
1 % = 12,780 / 72
100% = 12780 / 72 * 100 = $17,750

Hence, your answer is C. $17,750

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Residual value is 72% of the original MSRP of Henry’s leased car

To find: Original MSRP of Henry's Leased Car.

let, the original MSRP of Henry’s leased car is x

So, we know that

Residual value = 72% of x

Current worth of Henry's car = $12780

According to the Question,

Residual Value = Current worth of the car

72% of x = 12780

[tex]\frac{72}{100}\times x=12780[/tex]

[tex]x=12780\times\frac{100}{72}[/tex]

x = 17550

Hence, Original MSRP of  Henry's leased car is $17750

Therefore, Option C is correct.
