Answer:

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

we will make an equation that represents the cost of the item and the cost of sale

we will call x at the cost of the item we don't know the price

x * 125/100 = 52.50

Now that we have the equation we just have to clear the x

x = 52.50 / (125/100)

and finally we solve

x = 52.50 / 1.25

x = 42

the store owner pays $ 42 for the pair of jeans
