Anthony found a sweater on sale for 15% off! The discount price of the sweater before tax is $22.74. What is the regular price of the sweater before the discount?

Respuesta :

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $26.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The after-discount price is 85% of the original price. So, the original price is ...

  0.85 × p = 22.74

  p = 22.74/0.85 = 26.75 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of p

The regular price is $26.75.
