Study guide and worked examples

Learn the method before starting. Each example shows a complete solution.

Before an increase

After a 25% increase, a value is 250. Original = 250/1.25 = 200.

Before a discount

A price after 20% off is $96. Original = $96/0.80 = $120.

Common mistake

Do not subtract 20% of the discounted price: the rate applies to the original amount.
