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
Wait how would you even do this?
0.3333333333... = 1/3
You can just say 0.3 repeating to say 0.33333...
The answer for w is w=3.5 <span />
1/40,000 = h/10
40,000h = 10
