The original price, 100% of an item at the store is $180.00.
What is a percentage?
A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. Percentage can be calculated by dividing the value by the total value, and then multiplying the result by 100.
For the given situation,
Amount paid by Joyce = $63.00
Consider the original price be 100%
65 percent off the original price = [tex]100 - 65[/tex]
⇒ [tex]35[/tex]
So, 35% of an item is $63.00
The original price 100% can be calculated as
⇒ [tex]\frac{63(100)}{35}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{63100}{35}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]180[/tex]
Hence we can conclude that the the original price, 100% of an item at the store is $180.00.
