The pair of shoes that Linda wants is on sale today for
40% off. If this means that she will save $54, what is
the original price of the shoes before the discount?
Please help!!

Answer: $135

Step-by-step explanation: x(40/100)=54. x represents the original price and 40/100 is the discount while 54 is the money saved from the discount. This ultimately shows us 40% of something is 54 and that something is represented by x and x equals 135.
