15/100 x X = 17.00

15x = 1700

divide by 15 on both sides

x = 113.3

15% of something will equal your new price that you have to pay.

This may be a little confusing but if you understand what its trying to say is that, they got 15% of a the original price that would equal $17.00.

Also consider 15 out of 100 (15/100).

A way to remember is that cent means: 100.
