Respuesta :

$65

Explanation

you can easily solve this by using a rule of three:

if the discount is 35%, and Paullie saved $22.75

so

[tex]35\text{ percent}\Rightarrow22.75[/tex]

let x represents the full price of the shirt

100%= full price

[tex]100\text{ percent}\Rightarrow price\text{ of the shirt}[/tex]

as the proportion is the same

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{35}{22.75}=\frac{100}{x} \\ \text{Multiply cross} \\ 35x=22.75\cdot100 \\ \text{divide both sides by 35} \\ x=\frac{2275}{35} \\ x=65 \end{gathered}[/tex]

so, the original price was $65
