Let's assume the usual price of the rice cooker is "x".
According to the given information, the rice cooker was sold for 60 after a 60% discount.
Therefore, the discounted price of the rice cooker is 0.4x (100% - 60% = 40%, which is equivalent to 0.4).
Since the discounted price equals 60, we can set up the equation: 0.4x = 60.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.4, we get: x = 150.
Thus, the usual price of the cooker was $150.
