You can put this solution on YOUR website! sale price was $477 and marked down to 40% what was the original price
-------------
Question:: Was it marked down to 40%
or was it marked down 40%??
-------------------------------------
Let original price be "x"::
If it was marked down to 40% you get:
0.4x = 477
x = $1192.50
----------------------------
If it was marked down 40% you get::
0.60x = 477
x = $795
