Answer 1

160 is the answer to this 

Answer 2

Answer:

$160

Step-by-step explanation:

Nick bought a pair of glasses for $200.

Now, the same glasses advertised for 20% less than what he originally paid.

Since the original price is $200.

So, 20% of original price : $20\% *200$

                                           $\frac{20}{100} *200$

                                            $40$

Since we are given that the discounted price of the glasses is  20% less than what he originally paid.

⇒$200-(20\% *200)$

⇒$200-40$

⇒$160$

Thus the discounted price is $160

Hence the price being the glasses advertised is $160
