Because 20% of the regular price was taken off, 80% of the regular price is being paid by the customer. Since the sale price is $568, 80% of the regular price is $568. So you have to ask yourself, what is the number 568 80% of?
You would have to find the base. So divide:
The regular price of the free weight home gym is $710.
Hope that helps. Sorry if something's not explained clearly. If so, please let me know and I'll try to fix it. Good luck! :)
