Question

70% OFF!
Norma buys a bottle of perfume during the sale. If Norma pays $12, what was the original price?

Answer 1

Answer

$40

Explanation

Because the perfume is on sale (70% off), it only costs 30% of its original price.

So we divide the sale price of the perfume ($12) by 30%

12 ÷ 30 = 0.4

Then, we multiply 0.4 by 100

0.4 × 100 = $40

I hope it's correct
