Basketball shoes are on sale for 22% off. What is the regular price if the sale price is $42?

x =53.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

If the price is 22% of, you will pay 100% -22% = 78%

x * 78% = 42

Change to decimal form

.78x = 42

Divide each side by .78

.78x/.78 = 42/.78

Rounding to the nearest cent

x =53.85
