How do you determine the discount percentage?
It is = (reduction in price)/(original price) * 100.
A flat screen television is on sale for 460 following a 30 percent reduction of its original price what was its original price?
This means 460 is 70% of the original price (100%-30% reduction = 70%). So you do 460 / 70 = 6,571428571428571 6,571428571428571 * 100 = 657,1428571428571 The original price was 657,14

Sale price of a car is 17309 dollars which is 30 percent off the original price What is the original price?
