Answer:

Sales price = $78

Original price = $61

Step-by-step explanation:

Ulian bought the shows for $120 at a specialty store. This discount store had it at $42 less. The price at the discount store is therefore:

= 120 - 42

= $78

The shoes at the discount store are 61% off and the discounted price is $78. Assume the original price is x. The original price will be:

x - (x * 61%) = 78

x - 0.61x = 78

0.39x = 78

x = 78/0.39

x = $200
