Answer:
You are correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with 1 1/2. This can be made into an improper fraction which is 3/2
Now multiply both top and bottom of 3/2 by 5
(3*5)/(2 * 5) = 15 / 10
16/10 is just slightly bigger than 15/10
Let us assume last year the price of the item = $x.
After increase in price by 15% the new price = x + 15% of x = x+ 0.15x = 1.15x.
There is a 25% discount for employee.
25% of 1.15x = 0.25 × 1.15x = 0.2875 x.
Price after discount = 1.15x - 0.2875 x = 0.8625x.
The employee pays $172.50.
Therefore,
0.8625x = 172.50.
Dividing both sides by 0.08625.

<h3>x=200.</h3><h3>Therefore, last year the price was $200.</h3>
Answer:
