60%<---->$260
100%<--->(100/60) x $260
= 5 / 3 x $260
= $ 1300 / 3
= $ 433 . 33 is original price.

It says that the TV's are marked down 40% which means that the original price was greater than $260.
Multiply 260 by 1.4 to find the original price =364

$260 is to 60% as X is to 100%
260/60 = X/100
(260 x 100)/60 = X

Take 260 and multiply it by .40 and the result would be the original price.
