Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Remember how 20% is equal to 1/5?

2.

$80 is equal to 4/5 of the origanal price (1/5 being the 20% we took off of it)

3. With that in mind, we could easily find 20% of the origanal price.

4. So we fallow the equation 4/5 ÷ 4

also equal to 80 ÷ 4

5. 80 ÷ 4 is 20

6. now add 20 to 80 to make 100

(100 being 100% and the 20% was added to find the original price)
