A shop reduces all its prices by 30% in a closing down scale. What is the original price of a television now priced at £175?
can any1 help me on this?
Price*.70=£175
divide both sides by .70
To find the original price of the television, we need to solve the equation:
Price * 0.70 = £175
To isolate the variable "Price", we divide both sides of the equation by 0.70:
Price = £175 / 0.70
Using a calculator:
Price = £250
Therefore, the original price of the television is £250.
