x = original price
\n" ); document.write( "y = discounted price
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "y = x - 39
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "39/x * 100 = 13
\n" ); document.write( "39/x = 13/100
\n" ); document.write( "x(13/100) = 39
\n" ); document.write( "x = 39/(13/100)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 300
\n" ); document.write( "y = x - 39
\n" ); document.write( "y = 300 - 39
\n" ); document.write( "y = 261
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "answer:
\n" ); document.write( "y = discounted price = 261
