Question

A new laptop computer is on sale for $525.00, which is 25% off of its original price. What was the original price of the computer?

Answer 1

Answer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price = O

25% off means, original price - 25% of original price

=> O - 25% of O

we know that price on sale is $525

=> O - 25% of O = $525

=> O - 25/100 × O = 525

=> O - 1/4O = 525

=> 3/4 × O = 525

=> O = 525 × 4/3

=> O = 175 × 4

=> O = $700

Answer 2

a orginal laptop price is 700dallor
