A department store has a sale on shoes. For every pair of shoes, the sale price is 3/4 of the ticket price. If the sale price for a pair of shoes is $36, what is the ticket price?

Respuesta :

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p =  ticket price of the shoes

p * 3/4 = 36

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3 *3/4 p = 4/3 *36

p = 48

The ticket price is 48 dollars
