Find the original price of a pair of shoes if the sales price is 78 after a 25 percent discount?
The original price was $104.00
How do you find the sale price when given the original price and percentage off?
To take a percentage of a price, multiply the price by the decimal equivalent of the percentage, which is the percentage divided by 100. 25 percent of 15.00 = 15 x 0.25 = 3.75 To take a percentage off a price, you can either subtract that number from the original price (15.00 - 3.75 = 11.25) or multiply the original price by the decimal equivalent of 100 percent minus the discount. (15 x 0.75 = 11.25)
Find the sale price of a 130.00 pair of shoes at a 15 percent discount?
Oh, what a delightful question! To find the sale price of those lovely shoes, simply multiply the original price ($130.00) by the discount percentage (15%). Then, subtract that amount from the original price to reveal the discounted price. Remember, mistakes are just happy accidents in the world of math!
How do you figure out the sale price from its original price in math class here is an example The Camping Store is having a sale The discount is 15 percent on all items what was the sale price?
well there is two ways of answering this...1st waytake the price of the item (lets say $20) and multiply by the decimal equivalent of your percent off.20*.15=3That figured up your discount so to get they price you would pay you simply subtract your discount from the original price to get the sale price.20-3=172nd wayThe other way is to subtract your percent off from 100(since 100% would be full price) to find the percent you would pay.100-15=85then just multiply by the decimal equivalent of your percent that you would pay by the original price to get the sale price.20*.85=17both ways will get you the same result if the values are inserted correctly
How do you figure out the original price of something that you only know the ending total and the percentage off?
We're gonna tear this up. It's simple, but it will take a bit of patience, so buckle up. Ready? Let's go. You don't know the original price. You know the percent off. You know the sale price. We're in business. Let's hammer this thing. Here's how to work the problem....We don't know the original price, but we know that a percentage of it has been deducted from it (that original price) to give us a sale price, okay? Some percent off the original price is the sale price. Here's the trick. Look at the percent off. Now look at 100% minus the percent off. This new percentage represents how much of the original cost the final cost is. Got it? Another way to say that is that our new (calculated) percentage times the original price equals the sale price. Make sense? Let's pick something easy and give it a test drive.Say something costs $9 (that's the sale price), and it was marked down 10%. That means that the original cost minus 10% of the original cost is the final (the sale) price, or the $9. Now check this out. Focus. The discount was 10%, and another way to look at the problem is that the sale price is 100% -10% of the original price, which says that the sale price is 90% of that original price. Again, the sale price is 90% of the original price. See how that works? We use the discount (percentage) and make a calculation to find out how much of the original price the sale price is. We good? Super.As we now have a "new" set of facts to work with, that is, we have the sale price and the percentage of the original price that the sale price represents, we can go for it. The original price (the unknown) times the percentage of that original price that the sale price represents equals the sale price. Let's look at our example.The original price times the percentage of that price the sale price represents equals the sale price. Again, original price times that percentage we calculated equals the sale price. Now to do some math. If the original price times that new percentage equals the sale price, then the original price equals the sale price divided by the percentage. See what we did? We moved the percentage over to the other side of the equation. We divided both sides by the percentage, and it "dropped out" on the one side and appeared on the other. That's because we needed to isolate the original price (so we could solve for it using the other variables). In our example, the original price equals $9 (the sale price) divided by 90% (the percentage of the original price the sale price represents. $9 divided by 90% equals $9 divided by 0.9 which equals $10. The original price of the item was $10, and it was 10% off. The 10% of $10 equals $1, and the sale price is $10 minus $1 which equals $9. Our work checks.One more problem for fun to lock things in. At a 20% off sale, an item sells for $40 (its sale cost). What was its original cost? We know that the $40 represents 80% of the original price (100% -20%). The original price times the 80% equals $40. The original price equals $40 (the sale price) divided by the 80% (the percentage of the original price that the sale price represents). $40 divided by 80% equals $40 divided by 0.8 which equals $50. Our item's original price was $50. Last thing. $50 times 20% equals $10, and $50 minus $10 equals $40. Our work checks.We good? Excellent!I don't understandexplain more carefully
How do you find the discount rate when given the original price and sales price?
To find the discount rate, subtract the sales price from the original price to determine the discount amount. Then, divide the discount amount by the original price. Finally, multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage. The formula can be summarized as: Discount Rate (%) = [(Original Price - Sales Price) / Original Price] × 100.

How do you find the discount sales price when given the original price and the discount rate?
You're asking how to calculate the final sale price of a discounted good. The formula is: Original Price - (Original Price * Discount Rate). As an example, let's say a laptop is priced at $499.99 and the store is offering a 10% discount. Our equation would look like: $499.99 - (499.99 x 0.10) = 449.99.
How do you find the percent of discount if you know the original price in the sale price?
Percentage discount = 100*(1 - sale price/original price)
How do you find the original price of discounted item?
You need to know the discounted price and either the discount amount or the discount rate. If you know the discount amount: Original Price = Discounted Price + Discount If you know the Discount Rate (percentage discount ): Original Price = 100*Discounted Price / (100 - Discount Rate)
If the original price is 82 and the sales price is 65.60. What is the percent of discount.?
20%
What is the original list price if the discount is 35 and the discount rate is 10 percent?
If the discounted price is $35, then you must reverse the process to find the original price. The original price would be 38.99 dollars.
How do you find the original price if you only have the sale price?
If you have only the sale price you cannot find the original price. You need to know the discount rate.
How do you find the original amount if you only have a sale price and a discount?
If the discount is D percent and the sale price is S, then the original price was S*100/(100-D)
