The sale price of a model railroad set is $174. If it was marked down to 25% off of the original price, what was the original price?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

$217.50

Step-by-step explanation:

I) Make an equation to find the answer:

o = s + 0.25s (original price = sale price + 25% of sale price)

II) Solve:

o = 174 + 0.25(174)

o = 217.50

If the price was 174 after the mark down of 25%, then adding 25% back will give you the answer.

174 + 25% (which is 43.5) = $217.5

Hope this helps!
