Answer : The original price of dress was, $200.00
Step-by-step explanation :
Let the original price be, 'x'
So, the selling price will be = [tex]x+35\% \times x[/tex]
The selling price of dress = $270.00
Now we have to calculate the original price of the dress.
[tex]x+35\% \times x=270.00[/tex]
[tex]x+\frac{35}{100} \times x=270.00[/tex]
[tex]\frac{135x}{100}=270.00[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{100}{135}\times 270.00[/tex]
[tex]x=200.00[/tex]
Thus, the original price of dress was, $200.00
