a box of laundry detergent is on sale for $6.50 if this price represses a 40% discount from the original price what is the original price to the nearest cent

Respuesta :

Answer:

$10.83

Step-by-step explanation:

100 - 40 = 60

60% = 6.50

divide both sides by 60 to find 1%

1% = 0.10833333

Multiply both sides by 100 to find 100%

100% = 10.83 to the nearest cent.
