Question

Find the original price given the sale price and percent

Answer 1

Answer:

$660

Explanation:

We know that 33% of the price is equal to $217.80 and we need to know how much is 100% of the price. So, we can calculate the 100% as follows:

$100\text{ \% }\times\frac{\text{ \ 217.80}}{33\text{ \%}}=\text{ \ 660}$

Therefore, the price yesterday was $660.
