Answer: The original price of brownie was $2.1 each.

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

Let the original price will be x

Number of brownie purchased = 8

According to question , each brownie costs $0.20 less than the original price.

So, it becomes

$8\times (x-0.20)=\$15.20\\\\8x-1.6=15.20\\\\8x=15.20+1.60\\\\8x=16.8\\\\x=\frac{16.8}{8}\\\\x=\$2.1$

Hence, the original price of brownie was $2.1 each.
