Find the original price of a pair of shoes if the sale price is $40 after a 60% discount

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<em>Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

After a 60% discount, the sale price is now valued at 100-60=40% of its original price.

If the sale price is $40, then the original price is calculated as

$40 / 40 * 100 = $100

Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.

Verify applying 60% discount:

$100 - 60*$100/100 =  $40

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I subtracted the cost of the first pound from the final product (3.73 - 2.38) and I got 1.35. I then divided the 1.35 by .45 (the 45 cents) to figure out how many more pounds the package was from the initial 1 pounds. 1.35/.45 is 3, plus the 1 pound from the beginning makes 4 pounds in total.
