Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

At 27% reduction, we pay 100%-27%=73% of the original price O.

73% * O = $146

O = $146 / 73%

O = $2 / 1%

O = $2 / (1/100) = $2 * 100 = $200

Answer:

$ 200

Step-by-step explanation:

27 % off means you pay 73%   ( or .73 in decimal)

.73 * x   = 146             x = original price

x = 146/.73 = $ 200
