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

Mariulka [41]
To find your new number of sales per month, you will need to find the number of sales you have per month (based on 30 days per month).  

55 x 20 = 1650 sales.

Than, you will need to calculate what 10% of this is and add it to your original sales number.

0.1 (10%) x 1650 = 165

1650 + 165 = 1815

You will need approximately 1815 sales based on the 30 day month.
