Joyce paid $42.00 for an item at the store that was 65% off the original price. what was the original price

the original price was $120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Discounted price = $42

As discount given is 65%

So according to given condition:

Original Price - $42 = 65% of (original price)

Let Original price = x

x - $42 = 0.65 (x)

By simplifying:

x - 0.65x = $42

0.35x = $42

Dividing both sides by 0.35:

x = $42/0.35

x = $120

so the original price was $120
