Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "100 - 23 = 77%
\n" ); document.write( "77% = 64.68
\n" ); document.write( "1% = 64.68/77
\n" ); document.write( "100% = (64.68/77) x 100
\n" ); document.write( "100% = 84
\n" ); document.write( "This was the original cost of the coat.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
