Solomon bought a dining table at a 10% discount and paid the sale price of $450. What was the original price of the dining table?
Since there was a 10% discount, this means that Solomon only paid 100% - 10% = 90% of the original price.
The 90% is represented by $450, so 1% is equal to $450/90 = $<<450/90=5>>5.
Therefore, the original price of the dining table is $5 x 100 =$<<5*100=500>>500.
