after a 30% reduction, you purchase a dictionary for $30.80 what was the dictionary price before the reduction

Well the original price would be $44

Step-by-step explanation:

So make an equation

Lets make X stand for the price before the deduction

so x-x(0.3)=30.80

Subtracting the X by x(0.3) would tell us the price, the 0.3 stands for 30 percent and we know its 30 percent of X so we subtract that since 0.3x would give the change

Now just solve the equation

You’ll get 44.
