Question 802924: After a 15% discount, a shirt cost $30.60. What was the regular price of the shirt?
Answer by Cromlix(4381) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
85% = 30.60
1% = 30.60/85
100% = 30.60/85 * 100
100% = $36
The shirt originally cost $36.
Hope this helps.
