Question 564383: An appliance store has a particular microwave oven on sale for $125. If this is a 15% reduction in price, what is the regular price of the microwave oven? Answer by ad_alta(240) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A 15% reduction means that 0.85*O=125 where 'O' is the original price. Do the division to get O=147.06
