The 114 represents 80% of the total price before the sale. You would set up your equation as

Cost Price * 80% = Sale Price.

Sale Price = 114

80% = 80/100 = 0.8

Cost Price = 114/0.8

Cost Price = 142.50 which is the price before the deduction. You can confirm this by taking 20% of 142.50 and subtracting it form 142.50

20% * 142.50

20/100 * 142.50

2850/100

28.50

Now subtract 28.50 from 142.50

142.50 - 28.50 = 114 which is just what you might expect.

Simplify 15(2/5+1 1/3)+3
loris [4]
So for order of operations you start inside the parentheses and in order to add the insides you will need a common denominator which would be 15 on the bottom. So for 2/5 it would be 6/15 and for 11/3 would be 55/15 and then added together it would be 61/15. so then you would multiply and get 15(61/15). the 15 in the numerator will cancel with the denominator leaving only 61 and then the final step would be adding the 3 to 61 and the final answer will be 64
