Answer:
3/4 times 18= 13.5
31.5-13.5=18
It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.
It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.
18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5
If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.
18/x=75/100
75x=18 times 100
75x=1800
75x/75=1800/75
x=24
The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
For either one of the deals, just find what one card equals and times it by how many cards the other equation has.
e.g. 0.35 cents divide by 10 = 0.035. And now, you times it by 12 since the other deal is 12 cards for 40 cents.
0.035 x 12 = 0.48
So, 10 cards for 35 cents is not the better deal.
