Question

Heather purchased an iPad mini on sale 20% off for $263.20. What was the original price of the iPad mini?

Answer 1

discount = 20% of x

he got it in $263.20

therefore,

x- 20%of x = 263.20

x- (x/5) = 263.2

(5x-x)/5 = 263.2

4x = 263.2 * 5

x = (263.2*5)/4

therefore, x= $329

Answer 2

Answer:

Original Price was $329

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the original price be 'm'.

Purchased for = $263.20

Waiver off = 20% = 0.2 times the original price

Paid Price = Original Price - Waiver

Paid Price = m - 0.2*(m)

$263.20 = 0.8m

m = $263.20/0.8

m = $329

Original Price = $329
