Given that a sofa is on sale for 27% discount. The sale price is $511. The regular price is $700.
What is discount?
The term discount refers to the amount or percentage deducted from the normal selling price of something.
Let the regular price be $x.
Discount = 27%
Selling price = $511
Selling price = Regular price - Discount % of Regular price
[tex]511 = x - \frac{27}{100}x\\ \\511 = \frac{73x}{100} \\\\x = \frac{51100}{73} \\\\x = 700[/tex]
Regular price = $700.
