Answer:
$52
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an original price you must find how much of a percent was left before the discount.
100% - 15% = 85%
You then take this percentage a DIVIDE it by the new price.
$44.20/85% = $52 is the original price of the jeans.
So if there are 5 choices and only one is correct, there is a 1/5 chance of being correct. since there was 2 questions, you need to multiply 1/5 by 1/5 to get 2/25 of getting both questions correct.
i hope this helps!!
Answer:
If using one pound of pumpkin the baker needs to use 4 pounds of flour mixture
Step-by-step explanation:
