Answer 1

To get the the cost of how much Alexis is paying we first have to find the original cost and then subtract the $15 which is equal to 20% of the original number. 

To find the original price you take the $15 and divide it by .20 

15÷.20= 75 

To get the original price of a percentage you do the opposite of if you were trying to find the % for example :

75 x .20 = 15
15 ÷ .20 =75 

The original price is $75

75 - 15 = 60 

With the discount it is $60

I hope it helped 

Answer 2

Well, because we know that he got $15 off, and it was a 20% coupon, we turn the 20% into a 5 instead of .5. We do this so we can multiply to find the total.

$15 x 5 = 75

If you type into your calculator $75 - 20%, you will get 60 which is 15 less than 75.

So the total is $75

Have a super day!
