The price of a used textbook after a 35% discount is 715. What was the original price?

$\Large \fbox \red {Answer \: :}$

Let the original price of textbook = x

So, our equation is :

$x - 35\% \: of \: x \: = 715$

$x - \frac{35x}{100} = 715$

$\frac{13}{20} x = 715$

$x = \frac{715 \times 20}{13}$

$x = 1100$

$\implies$ So, the original price of the used textbook is 1100rs.
