: I corrected my email address
Please help me solve this equation: What was the MSrp for a hummer HI that sold for $107,272 after an 8% discount?
I think I worked the problem wrong
107,272 = L-0.08L
1(107,272)= 1(L-0.08L)
107,272 = 1L-8L
107,272 = 7L
107,272 = 7L
_______ = ___
7 7L
154,245.71 = L This question is from textbook

107,272 = L-0.08L
107,272=.92L
L=107,272/.92
L=$116,600 WAS THE ORIGINAL PRICE.
