The 120$ is 4/5 of its regual price (x)
so :
4/5 of x = 120
i.e: 4x/5 = 120
Solve for x:
x = 120*5/4 = 150$
That was its regular price.

Explanation- simple math
Let's use our largest amount (quarter) to see how many can fit evenly into 1.74.
- 1.74/0.25 = 6.96
- The most quarters that can fit into $1.74 is 6.
---Multiply $0.25 by 6 = $1.50
---Subtract $1.50 from $1.74 = $0.24
---We need to use the rest of the coins to fill up $0.24.
Now let's use our second largest amount (dime) to see how many can fit evenly into 0.24.
- 0.24/0.10 = 2.4
- The most dimes that can fit into $0.24 is 2.
---Multiply $0.10 by 2 = $0.20
---Subtract $0.20 from $0.24 = $0.04
No nickels can fit into $0.04, because they are worth $0.05.
We can use our least amount (pennies) to fill in the $0.04 remaining.
Your answer is 6 quarters, 2 dimes, and 4 pennies.
%=percent
percent means parts out of 100
20%=20/100
'of' means multiply
20% of 100 units means
20/100 times 100 units=2000/100 units=20 units
Answer:
![t=\dfrac{k-rs}{3m}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=t%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bk-rs%7D%7B3m%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's like solving any equation, except we have letters instead of numbers .
k = 3tm + rs {subtract rs from both sides}
k - rs = 3tm {divide both sides by (3m)}
{swap sides}
m≠0
{m must be ≠0 because you cannot divide by 0. There is no t for m=0}
