At a 35% off sale. Daniela purchased a dress for $94.64. What was the regular price of the dress. Please give the answer and formula.
let the regular price be x
so .65x = 94.64
solve for x
x -.35x = 94.64
0.65x = 94.64
0.65x/0.65 = 94.64/0.65
x = 145.60
Regular price is $145.60
can you long hand that?
What do you mean, "long hand that?"
never mind I figured it out thanks tho
To find the regular price of the dress, we can use the formula: Regular Price = Sale Price / (1 - Discount Percentage).
In this case, the sale price is $94.64 and the discount percentage is 35%.
Substituting the values into the formula, we have:
Regular Price = $94.64 / (1 - 0.35)
Calculating the expression inside the parentheses:
Regular Price = $94.64 / 0.65
Simplifying the division:
Regular Price = $145.60
Therefore, the regular price of the dress is $145.60.
