Elita bought a jacket that was on sale for 45% off the original price. If she paid $110 for the jacket when she checked out, what was the original price of the jacket?
+526 Selling price = $110
Discount % = 45%
Let the original/marked price be x.
⇒x - (45% of x) = 110
⇒x - 45x/100 = 110
⇒100x - 45x = 11000
⇒55x = 11000
⇒x = 200
Thus, the original price was $200.
