Question

1. a computer game is discounted by 15%, which saves the buyer $30. what was the original price of the game?

Explanation:

Step1: Define original price variable

Let $P$ = original price of the game.

Step2: Relate discount to savings

15% of $P$ equals $30$, so:
$$0.15P = 30$$

Step3: Solve for original price

Rearrange to isolate $P$:
$$P = \frac{30}{0.15}$$

Answer:

$200$
