Steve buys last year's best-selling novel, in hardcover, for $22.50. This is with a 10% discount from the original price. What was the original price of the novel?

Respuesta :

The original price of the novel is $25.

The summary are:

  • Steve bought the novel at $22.50 (including the discount)
  • The discount given by the seller of the novel is 10%

So, the original price will be computed as follows:

= $22.50 / (1 - 10%)

= $22.50 / 0.90

= $25

Therefore, the original price of the novel is $25.
