Percentages

Given that Farhan bought a bag and a wallet at a discount from a store, and he was given a discount of 30% for the bag, and for the wallet, a discount was also given, and he saved a total of $66.60, and he paid a total of $121.40 for the 2 items and paid $46.60 more for the bag than the wallet, to determine A) what was the price of the bag without discount, and B) what was the percentage discount given for the wallet, the following calculations must be performed:

• (121.4 - 46.6) / 2 = Wallet
• 37.4 = Wallet

• 1-0.3 = 0.7
• 0.7 = 84
• 1 = X
• 84 / 0.7 = X
• 120 = X

• 66.6 - (120 - 84) = X
• 66.6 - 36 = X
• 30.6 = X
• 68 = 100
• 37.4 = X
• 37.4 x 100 / 68 = X
• 55 = X

Therefore, A) the price of the bag without discount was $120, and B) the discount on the wallet was 45%.
