A 25% discount means u paid 75%
75% of the original price is 18...
0.75x = 18.....with x being the original price
x = 18 / 0.75

Discount ⇒ 25%
The price after discount ⇒ 100% - 25% = 75%

Solution:
original price = percentage of original/percentage after discount × price after discount
original price = 100%/75% × 18
original price = 100/75 × 18
original price = 4/3 × 18
original price = 24

The original price was $24.00

If she loses, her probability of winning increases =3/4

If she wins, her probability to win is normal =1/2

Given that probability of winning is 1/2

Probability of losing is 1-1/2=1/2

Probability that she wins the tournament is probability that she wins the first two games and loses the last or wins the first game, loses the second and wins the last or loses the first game and wins the last two games or probability that she wins all three games

=1/2*1/2*1/2+1/2*1/2*3/4+1/2*3/4*1/2+1/2*1/2*1/2

=25/48

Probability of winning the tournament if she loses the first game

=1/2*3/4*1/2= 3/16

Note: whenever there is "or" in probability, you add
