    70% off means she only paid 30% so if x = original price,

    54/x = 30/100.

    Cross multiply

    30x = 5400 so divide by 30

    x = $180

    The answer is $92.00 all you have to do is multiply the 70 percent back on the sale price to get your answer. I used to work in a dress store and that's how we did it
