Marissa bought a skirt on sale for $8.45 less that 60% off the original price. She paid $9.55 for the skirt. What was the original price of the skirt? Write an equation, using a variable, to represent this situation. Then, solve your equation. Show your reasoning.

$23.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the original price by p.  

The sale price is (100% - 60%), or 40%, of p:  

$9.55 = 0.40p

Dividing both sides by 0.40 results in:

p = $23.88 (rounded up from $23.875).
