Janelle paid $86.00 for a pair of running shoes. The tax on the purchase was 7.5%. What was the original price of the shoes, before tax was added? please help me I'm bad at word problems

cost price of shoes with tax=$86.00

Let cost price of a shoes be x

tax paid=rate of tax*amount tax/100

=7.5*$86.00/100

=645/100

=$6.45

Therefore he paid $6.45 tax

Now,original price of a shoes=cost price of a shoes with tax-tax paid

=$86.00-$6.45

=$79.55

Therefore,original price of the shoes is $79.55
