Question

Manuel found a wrecked Trans-Am that he could fix. He
bought the car for 65% of the original price of $7200.
What did he pay for the car? (Round to nearest dollar)

Answer 1

He payed $7200 of the wrecked car which is about 65% of the original price.
So the equation will be, $\frac{65}{100} *x=7200$
$x=7200* \frac{100}{65}$
So x will be equal to $11,076.92. Rounding off to the nearest dollar and it will become $11,077 for the car
