  1. multiply 28 by .30 and add the sum to 28.... thats the original price


  2. x - .3x = 28

    x (1 - .3) = 28

    x (.7) = 28

    x = 28/.7

    x = 40

  3. 70 % = 28

    1% = 0.4

    100% = 40

    original price = $40

  4. (x*70)/100 = 28

    Where x is the original price.

  5. Should be 32.4 dollars.

    Proof: Multiply 28 and .30. Then, add your answer (8.4) to 28. Again, your answer is $32.4

  6. if its discounted 30 that means it was 70 of the original

    so 70%of x=28 so multiply 28 by (10/7)

    (40 is the answer)
