Answer:
32.40
Step-by-step explanation:
The shirts were 40% of the regular price
The sale price of 1 shirt was
18*40% = sale price
18*.40 =7.20
He bought 3 shirts, so multiply by 3
3 * 7.2 =21.60
He paid 21.60
The price he would have paid without the discount is
18*3 = 54
The savings is
54- 21.60 =32.40

We will set up an equation where 4/5 is being multiply by the number to get 32. we will represent that number by x
4/5 * x = 32 solve for x
4/5x = 32
0.8x = 32
x = 40
