"Discount on a new shirt"



A department store is having a 30% off sale on all shirts. I find one that I like, so I go to the cashier and pay $25. He gives me $2.67 in change, and then I leave with my new rainbow shirt.

If sales tax is 10% of the final purchase price, what was the original (retail) price of the shirt?
