    By multiplying the discounted price by the percent which is 22% or. 22, and then adding it to the discounted price the regular price will be known.

    42*.22=9.24+42 = Regular price

    The regular price is $51.24

    So 22% off means that the shoes cost 100-22=78%

    the shoes cost $42 so

    42=78%

    we want to find how much is 100% so we multiply 42/78 by 100/x where x is the cost since the same fraction inverted and multiplied by itself is = to 1. (if you don't get this feel free to message me)

    so 4200/78x

    we divide this on a calculator and get $53.85
