Answer:

The original price is $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price

If the shirt was sold on a 20% discount. Then the sale price is 80/100x

The original price was five dollars more than the sale price .

To put this in an equation

X= 5+ 80/100x

X-0.8X= 5

0.2x= 5

X= 5/0.2

X= $25
