The suit would be $404.01

Because 603 / 100 = 6.03
6.03 x (100 - 33) = 404.01

Answer:

The original price of the suit was $900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the original price of the suit.  If the sales price is $603, we can work backwards to (1 - 0.33)p = $603, which simplifies to 0.67p = $603.  Dividing both sides by 0.67 yields the original price, p:  p = $603/0.76 = $900
