    The original price to the nearest dollar is $542

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the original price be $x

    The sale price was 40% less than the regular price. If the sale price was $325

    X - 40/100 x = 325

    X - 0.4x = 325

    0.6 x = 325

    X = 325/0.6

    X = $558 to the nearest dollars
