Answer:

a) $175 b) It will be $126

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 3 games= $140

Let the original price of games= $ x

Discount is given= 30%

According to question

x \frac{(100-20)}{100}= $140

x \frac{80}{100}= $140

x ×0.8= $140

x= $ \frac{$140}{0.8}

x= $175

Hence, the original price of games $ 140

(b)  If Sam had given a discount of 20%

Again a discount = 10%

The price of games=$ 140

Now, the selling price will be= 175\frac{(100-20)}{100}×\frac{(100-10)}{100}

Now, the selling price will be= $ 126

Hence, the price will be different.

To solve for this, we need to multiply 55 balloons by 30 days to get the average total, and then the remainder.
