Answer:

$75.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the percentage decrease

= 100-18

= 82%

Therefore the original cost of the shirt before the discount can be calculated as follows

= 82/100 × x = 61.91

= 82x/100= 61.91

Cross multiply

82x= 100×61.91

82x= 6191

x = 6191/82

= 75.5

Hencd the original cost of the shirt is $75.5

A stack of 6 bricks is 2 feet high. How high is a stack of 20 bricks?
Korolek [52]
60.

The question gives you the fact that 6 bricks is 2 feet high.

What do you do to get from 2 to 20?
You multiply by 10.

Since you multiplied one thing by 10, you must do it to the other side so it remains balanced.

2 ft x 10ft = 20ft

6 bricks x 10 bricks = 60 bricks
