Answer:

$28.24

Explanation:

Let x represent the original tab cost.

We can go ahead and solve for x as seen below;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 17\text{\% of }x=4.80 \\ \frac{17}{100}\times x=4.80 \\ 17x=480 \\ x=\frac{480}{17} \\ x=28.24 \end{gathered}[/tex]

We can see from the above that the original tab was $28.24
