In a sale normall prices are reduced by 10% Natalie brought a pair of shoes from the sale and they cost £54 what was the original price

£60

Step-by-step explanation:

Natalie bought a pair of shoes for £54 which had been reduced by 10%.

To find the original cost, assume the original cost is x.

The discount would be: 10% * x

The expression would therefore be:

x - (10% * x) = 54

x - 0.1x = 54

0.9x = 54

x = 54 / 0.9

x = £60
