Question

Using coupons, you spend $135 grocery shopping. this is 75% of the total retail price of the groceries. how much would you have spent if you had not used the coupons?

Answer 1

Let x be the total price. And you paid 75% of it which is $135.

x * 75/100 = 135
x = 180
You would have paid $180 if you had not used coupons.
