Answer:
The original price was $80.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price is x.
x is the full original price, so it is 100% of the original price.
The sale is 35%, so we subtract 35% from 100%.
100% - 35% = 65%
Since the discount was 35%, then the sale price is only 65% of the original price.
65% of the original price is $52
65% * x = 52
0.65x = 52
x = 52/0.65
x = 80
Answer: The original price was $80.
