Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of furniture be $x.

Reduction in  price = 20%x =.20x.

Reduced price = x-.20x.

It is given reduced price is $3,520.00

So,

x-.20x=3,520.

0.80x= 3,520

Dividing both sides by .80

x=3,520÷.80

x=$4400.

The original price of furniture before discount is $4,400.
