Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The markup price is always higher than the original, so to find the original you take the markup and do some subtracting.  What we are subtracting is 25% of the original price, which is what we don't know.  Our equation then is

x = 32.65 - .25x and

1.25x = 32.65 so

x = 26.12

That's the original price.  Marking that original price up by 25% and then adding that dollar markup amount to the original amount gives you 32.65
