Lisa bought a suit on sale for 459. This price was 15% less than the original price. What was the original price?

If 459 is 15% less than the original, this means the original was 15% more than 459.

So we have to find 15% more of 459, and to do this, we have to:

Add 100 + 15 = 115

115/100 = 1.15

1.15 x 459 = 527.85

Hope this answers your question
