An item that has been reduced 40 percent off the retail price will need to be increased by almost 66.7 percent of the sale price to return to the original retail price.
If there has been a discount of 20% then the price you paid is 80% of the oroginal price. You will need to divide the price you paid by 80 and multiply that answer by 100 to get ther original price.
3o percent discount means 30 percent off from the original price. So the price is now 70 percent of the original price. To get 100 percent, which is the original price, you divide the 70 percent through 70 and take it 100 times: ((70 percent :70)x100=(1 percent:1)x100=100 percent) now our 70 percent is 13.35. Put it in place of the first 70 and you get: (13,35:70)x100 = (13,35:7)x10 = 133,5:7 = 19,07 So 19.07 had been the original price
20%
The sale prices are equal.0.75 W = 0.8 BB/W = 0.75/0.8 = 0.9375The black pair was originally at 93.75% of the price of the white pair.The difference in original prices is 6.25% of the white-shoe price, and 6-2/3% of the black-shoe price.=========================Check:Let the original prices be:White = $100Black = $93.75Sale prices:White = 0.75 x 100 = $75Black = 0.8 x 93.75 = $75yay!
The remaining price is (100% - 19%) of 440, or 81% of 440, or 0.81 x 440.
The original price of the bat was $160.00

Generally speaking the full price is the MSRP which is the highest price possible. The sales merchandise would already be marked down from MSRP, so you are receiving an additional 50% off a price that has already been reduced from MSRP.
no because you don't add the percents together

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
