A price cooker was reduced by shiny 850 during the sale this presented a 17% discount determine the cell impress of the cooker

Answer 1

Let the original price of the cooker be x.

After the 17% discount, the price of the cooker is 0.83x (because 1 - 0.17 = 0.83).

This reduced price is $850 less than the original price x, so we can set up the equation:

0.83x = x - 850

Solving for x:

0.83x = x - 850
0.17x = 850
x = 850 / 0.17
x = $5000

Therefore, the original price of the cooker was $5000.
