The original price of a television is reduced by 25%. This new price is then increased by 25%. Calculate the price of the television now as a percentage of the original price.​

Sagot :

Answer:  93.75%

Step-by-step explanation:  We can assume any price and find the percentage change.  I'll choose $100, since it is easy to work with.

The first 25% reduction means we subtract $25 from the $100, for a sales price of $75.  We then increase the sales price by 25%  (1.25*75) = $93.75.

$93.75/$100 = 93.75% of the original price
