Alright, lets get started.

Suppose women had to pay x $ at regular price.

As we know, the sale is 1/4 off.

It means she saves x * 1/4 = x/4

So, women need to pay = regular price - what she saves

women need to pay = x - x/4 = 3 x / 4 that is equal to 42 (given in question)

3x / 4 = 42

Multiplying 4 in both sides.

3x / 4 * 4 = 42 * 4

3 x = 168

Dividing 3 in both sides

3 x / 3 = 168/ 3

x = 56

she have had to pay 56 $ at the regular price : Answer

Hope it will help :)

The average daily balance after 20 days is; $1750

<h3>Average Balance</h3>

The initial balance after grace period is; $25,000

Afterwards, A payment of $5,000 each is made on the 10th and 20th day.

Hence, the total balance after 20 days is;

= $25,000 + $5000 + $5000

= $35,000.

The average daily balance is therefore the quotient of $35,000 and 20 days

The average daily balance = $35,000/20

Average daily balance = $1750
