At the store Julie bought a shirt for $23.97, which was 25% off the original price.
Which of these should she use to find x, the original price of the shirt?
A) 0.25x = 23.97
B) 0.75x = 23.97
C) 23.97 - 0.25x
D) 23.97(0.25) = x
i believe its B, choosing B will mean you have to solve for x and once you do that you get an answer of 31.96 which makes since, the original price of shirt is 31.96
The answer is B because the total is 23.97. 0.25% is off so you have to subtracting 25% from 100% and you will get 75% if you convert it to decimal you will get 0.75. You have to find the original because the formula is % times original = total.so you have the total and the % so you just have to plug it in.i hope it will help
