8. A leather jacket has a sale price of $\$ 102$. If the sale price is one-third off the original price, what was the original price of the jacket? $\$ 170$ $\$ 153$ $\$ 136$ $\$ 68$

Step 1 ：The problem is asking for the original price of the jacket. Given that the sale price is one-third off the original price, this means that the sale price is two-thirds of the original price.

Step 2 ：Therefore, to find the original price, we can divide the sale price by two-thirds (or multiply by 3/2).

Step 3 ：Let's denote the sale price as \(\$ 102\).

Step 4 ：Then, the original price can be calculated as \(\$ 102 \times \frac{3}{2} = \$ 153\).

Step 5 ：Final Answer: The original price of the jacket was \(\boxed{\$ 153}\).
