Question 4014
  
 
  You are on the way to solve the problem.
  Let the selling price be = x
  So after charging 8% of selling price
  x - 0.08x = 117.760  which means
  1x - 0.08x = $117.760
  = 0.92x = $117.760     (By subtracting the coefficients)
  So x = {{{117.760/0.92}}}
  =  128
  So the selling price = $128  answer


  I hope you have understood now.
