Answer:
$189.43
Step-by-step explanation:
P = regular price
65% as a decimal = [tex]\frac{65}{100}[/tex] = .65
Discount = .65
To get the amount of the discount we would multiply P * .65
To find the sale price we subtract the discount from the original price.
Now we write our equation:
P - P(.65) = $66.30
Solve for P
P - P(.65) = $66.30
1P - P(.65) = $66.30
1P - .65P = $66.30
.35P = 66.30 Divide each side by .35
.35P.35 = 66.30/.35
P = 66.30/.35
P ≈ $189.43
