Debra brought a desk on sale for $438. This price was 73% of the original price. What was the original price

Sagot :

Let x = the original price of the desk.

It's known that 73% of the price is $438, thus:

[tex]\frac{73}{100}x=438[/tex]

Multiplying by 100 and dividing by 73:

[tex]x=\frac{100\cdot438}{73}=600[/tex]

The original price of the desk was $600
