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

What is the answer to 7/12 plus 1/3
viva [34]

Answer: 11/12

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that 7/12 and 1/3 are unlike fractions. Our first step when adding unlike fractions is to get a common denominator.

The common denominator of 12 and 3 will be the least common multiple of 12 and 3 which is 12.

The fraction 7/12 already has a 12 in the denominator so we leave it alone.

To get a 12 in the denominator of 1/3, we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 4 and we get the equivalent fraction 4/12.

Now we are adding like fractions.

To add like fractions, we simply add across the numerators.

7/12 + 4/12 = 11/12

Therefore, 7/12 + 1/3 = 11/12.
