The setting influences the plot, which includes the story's events. Certain actions are more likely to take place in specific environments. Also, the story's tone and theme rely on its setting. In addition, the setting shapes the characters.
I believe this is one of those "Find the original cost of the item" bracelets. If so, this is a simple process.
You have a bracelet that is NOW 50 dollars after a 20% increase in price. Who knows, maybe somebody lost some stocks, but now you need to know what the original price of this item was.
So, you have two numbers. $50, and 20%. You can't do anything with the 20% as it is, so you need to convert it to a decimal, which you do so by always moving the percent sign (%) two places to the left, and replacing it with a decimal sign (.)
You get .20
NOW, you must find out how much of a difference there was between the new price and old price. You can do just this by simply multiplying your NEW ($50) cost by your converted percentage.
50*.20=10 (carry the dollar sign from the 50 down)
This means there is a $10 difference in bracelet's old price and new price. You know there was an increase, so this means you now need to subtract 10 from 50 and you'll get your old price.
50-10=40
The bracelet's original price was $40. Bless the heart of whoever in management lost their stocks (joke).
If you want to check this, just simply add the difference and the old price together, if you get the new price, then you're correct. 10+40=50, so this is indeed correct.

Hello Tiffany,
Irony comes in many different shapes and sizes, but the main gist of irony is that it serves as a humorous contradiction.
An ironic ending then, would be an ending that concludes in a way that is different that what is expected, or that directly contradicts a character’s desires.
For instance, if a snail spent the whole story trying to run a one mile track, and then the story ended with the snail getting stepped on right before he crossed the one mile line. This is ironic for two separate reasons; one, because as readers we expect that the snail will finally complete the track, and the twist of events contradicts the ending we formed in our ahead. And two, the ending directly contradicts the snail’s desires and what he has been working for.
