Answer:

$48

Step-by-step explanation:

if the video game has been discounted 25%, this means that it has been sold for 100% - 25% = 75% of the original price.

let the original price by $P

Hence in our case,

$36 = 75% of the original price

$36 = (75/100) x $P   (rearranging)

P = $36 x (100/75) = $48
