Answer 1

Answer:

if I'm correct it would be 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

20% off means the 20% was taken away from the original price which will have us remaining with 80%

80% = 40

100% (original price) = 100% x 40

                                           80%

=$ 50.00
