Today only, a desk is being sold at a 65% discount. The sale price is $196.
What was the price yesterday?

$264.60

Step-by-step explanation:

This price is 65% of the price yesterday. We need to add on the remaining 35%. Multiply 196 by 0.35 then add the product to 196 to get 264.6. Convert to dollars by writing the number with a dollar sign and to the hundredths.

$301.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically it comes out to:

$196 = (100/65)x

And we need find x, of course.

The algebra turns this into:

196/0.65 = x

So x is equal to 301.54

We can check this number's validity here by multiplying the discount by the original, non-sale price to see if we get our discount price:

0.65 * 301.54 = 196

Checks out. The answer is $301.54.
