Answer:

$40.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 25 % off and the sale price is $30, the original price was $40.

The sale price is 75 % of the original price. Therefore,

0.75x=30

30/.75=40

Answer:

30x25/100

25%=7,5$

30+7,5$=37,5$

The original price was 37,5 because you had to first find out what was 25% in $ to then do the opposite of a sale since we are finding the original price so we have to add it to 30$ since 30$ was the price after the sale.

Hope this helps, have a good day!

What do I need to do and what are the steps

Viktor [21]

So allison spent 3/5 meaning she saved 2/5 because 3/5 + 2/5 = 5/5

change the 2/5 into decimals by 2 ÷ 5 = 0.4

multiply $55 with 0.4
55 x 0.4 = 22

so she ends up saving $22
