     The Definition of Porcentage is given by:

[tex]p= \frac{V_{x}}{V_{t}}[/tex]
 
     Where Vx is discounted value or increased, and Vt is total value. The discount decreases the "p" value.

[tex]p= \frac{V_{x}}{V_{t}} \\ \frac{(100-20)}{100V_{x}} = \frac{1}{V_{t}} \\ V_{t}= \frac{51.44}{0.8} \\ \boxed {V_{x}=64.3}[/tex]
