Answer 1

Answer:

$22.50

Step-by-step explanation:

50/100 = x/45

cross multiply

50 × 45 = 100 × x

2250 = 100x

divide both sides by 100

22.5 = x

*note: marksup the price means that $45 should be more than what the value of x is. $45 is more than $22.50. you can also check your work by looking at the fact $22.50 is exactly half (50%) the amount of $45*
