Replace the words with what you know
(Original cost)(6%)=5.25
(Original cost)(0.06)=5.25
(original cost)=5.25/0.06=87.5

Answer:

The equation is adjusted by dividing the tax amount by the percent to find the original cost. Dividing by the percent is the inverse operation of multiplying by percent.
