Answer:
$500
Step-by-step explanation:
this is basically asking 575 is the new price after a 15% increase what is the value before this increase?
to get 575 a number was multiplied by 1.15
this means we can divide 575 by 1.15 to reverse this
= 500
Checking
15% of 500 is in fact 75
thus 500 + 75 = 575
correct
