Answer:

$80

Step-by-step explanation:

the original price (in percent) = 100%

the discount (25% off) = - 25%

_________________

the sale price (in percent) = 75% =>

equal to $60

so, the original price =

100/75 × $60 = $80

  • Sold price=60
  • Discount=25℅

Now

  • Cost price be x.

[tex]\\ \rm\longmapsto 100-25=75\%[/tex]

  • 75% of x=60

[tex]\\ \rm\longmapsto \dfrac{75}{100}x=60[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\longmapsto x=60\times \dfrac{100}{75}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\longmapsto x=80[/tex]
