Answer:

The original price of skateboard = $175

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Discount% = 20%

Discounted price = $140

To Find:

The original price of skateboard = ?

Solution:

Let original price of skateboard be $x

$140 = x - 20x / 100

140 = 100x - 20x / 100

140 = 80x / 100

x = 140 x 100 / 80

x = $175

Therefore,

The original price of skateboard = $175
