Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's 5% off, the sale price will be 95% of the original price.

you have [tex]0.95x = 57\\[/tex] where x is the original price

solving:

multiply both sides by 100

[tex]95x = 5700[/tex]

divide both sides by 95

[tex]x = 60[/tex]

The original price is $60
