Answer: Total Price: 60$

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are solving is 15% of x is $9.

To find this, there all multiple methods but this was the way I was taught. I would find 10% which would be 6$. I know this because 5% of 9 is 3 so I subtracted 3 it would be subtracting 5%. 10% = 6

To get to the full price, you multiply 10% to get to 100% (multiply by 10) 10 x 6 = 60

And to double check your answer, you can find 15% of 60 by taking 10% (6$) and 5% (3$) which would be 15% equalling 9$.
