Jenna bought a coat on sale for $120

The price of the coat is the 2/3of the original price

Let the original price is $x

So, the equation will be :

2/3 of x =120

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{3}\text{ of x=120} \\ \frac{2}{3}\times x=120 \\ x=120\times\frac{3}{2} \\ x=60\times3 \\ x=180\text{ dollars} \end{gathered}[/tex]
