IThe original price was reduced by 80% and the item cost $600. therefore $600 must be 20% of the original price. Therefore half of it, which is $300, would be 10% of the original price. This means that the original price was $3000.

Today a table is being sold at a 28 percent discount the sell price is 594 dollars what is the original price?

How do you figure out a problem that wants to know the original price and gives you the amount of discount?
Let x equal the original price. Let's say the sale is 25 percent off. That means that 0.75x = the sale price. To find the original price, divide the sale price by the decimal equivalent of 100 minus the discount. Example: You bought an item for 48.00 that was marked as being 20 percent off the original price. The original price was 48.00 divided by 0.80 or 60.00
