A hockey stick is on sale for 25% off.
The sale price of the hockey stick is $16.50.
What is the original price of the hockey stick?


Sagot :

$16.50 is equal to 3/4 so we divide $16.50 by 3 to get 1/4 then multiply it by 4 to get 4/4
$16.50/3*4=$22.00
$16.50 is 3/4 of the original price, as it is 25% (1/4) off. To obtain 1/4 of it, we can divide $16.50 by three, which is $5.50. This is 1/4 of the original price. Now to get the full original price, we can multiply that by four, which is $22.00. Hope that this helped, good luck!
