The price of a jacket is reduced by 25%. During a special sale the price of the jacket is reduced another 10%. By approximately what percent must the price of the jacket now be increased in order to restore it to its original amount?
Choose the correct choice from the following answers:
A) 32.5
B) 35
C) 48
D) 65
E) 67.5
1) Let the price of jacket initially be $100.   2) Then it is decreased by 25% , therefore bringing down the price to $75.   3) Again it is further discounted by 10%, therefore bringing down the price to $67.5.   4) Now 67.5 has to be added by X % in order to equal the original price.   67.5 + ( X% ) 67.5 = 100.   Solving this eq for X, we get X = 48.1   Answer is 48.
