Question

four sisters bought a present for their mother. They received a 10% discount on the original price of the gift. after the discount was taken, each sister paid $9.00. What was the original price of the gift?

Answer 1

So first you will need to multiply 9 by 4. You get 36. Now you need to add the 10 percent and you get 39.6! That's the answer!

Answer 2

$9*4 sisters=$36 before discount
+10% discount
10% = 3.6
36+3.6= 39.6
Price before discount =$39.60
