Let the original price of board game be x.
[tex]x\times \frac{70}{100}=14[/tex]
[tex]x\times \frac{7}{10}=14[/tex]

[tex]7x=140[/tex]
Divide both sides by 7.
[tex]x=20[/tex]
The original price is 20. Therefore the correct option is B.
The price paid by Joe is 14.00. The original price can be calculated by using percentage formula.
