the price of a jacket is reduced by 35 % . during a special sale the price of the jacket is reduced another 10 % . by approximately what percent must the price of the jacket now be increased in order to restore it to its original amount ?
"1 ) let the price of jacket initially be $ 100 . 2 ) then it is decreased by 35 % , therefore bringing down the price to $ 65 . 3 ) again it is further discounted by 10 % , therefore bringing down the price to $ 58.5 4 ) now 58.5 has to be added byx % in order to equal the original price . 58.5 + ( x % ) 58.5 = 100 . solving this eq for x , we get x = 70.9 ans is a ."
