To find the original amount, we need to reverse the 10% deduction that was taken.
Let x be the original amount of money.
After deducting 10%, the remaining amount is 90% of the original amount. We can represent this as:
0.90x = 81.00
To find x, we can divide both sides by 0.90:
x = 81.00 / 0.90
x = 90.00
Therefore, the original amount of money was #$90.00.
