Answer:

230

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Since it was rose 30%

and the rose price now is worth $299.00

To Find:

What was it worth a year ago? (aka {Original price})

Solve:

Original value + increase = current value

x + 0.3x = 299

1.3x = 299

Divide both sides by 1.3

1.3/1.3x = 299/1.3

x = 230

It was worth 230 a year ago
