The original price of the item will be $ 480.When there is 75% off on the original price.

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A fraction of 100 can be used to express the ratio.

The right question is

"Joyce saved $120 on an item that was 75 % off. What was the original price?"

Given data;

% off = 75

Amount saved $120

Let the original price of the item is x

75 % of x + $120 = x

0.75x+ 120 =x

0.25 x =120

x=120/0.25

x=480

Hence, the original price of the item will be $ 480.

The congruence theorem that can be used is: B. ASA

<h3>What is the ASA Congruence Theorem?</h3>

If we have two triangles that have two pairs of corresponding congruent angles (e.g. ∠LGH ≅ ∠HKJ and ∠LHG ≅ ∠KHJ), and a pair of corresponding congruent sides (e.g. GH ≅ HK), the triangles are said to be congruent triangles by the ASA congruence theorem.

Therefore, triangles GHL and KHL in the image given are congruent triangles by the ASA congruence theorem.
