    The discount is 40% that means the discount is 40% off from the original price. Or we could write the discount as below.

    discount = 40% * original price

    Find the original price

    original price = sale price + discount

    original price = 36 + 40% original price

    100% original price = 36 + 40% original price

    100% original price - 40% original price = 36

    60% original price = 36

    0.6 original price = 36

    original price = 36/0.6

    original price = 60

    The original price of the headphone is $60
