Question

A dress is on sale for 75% off. The sale price is $30. How much did the dress originally cost

Answer 1

The dress originally costs $120.

In order to find this, you need to divide the current cost by the percentage you are paying for. Since it's 75% off, you are paying for 25% of the dress's original cost. Therefore, divide 30 by 25%.

30/.25 = $120

Answer 2

120 at full price. Take 30 and multiply by 4
