Answer 1

Answer: $30.6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a store advertises a 20% off sale and that the price of a particular product is $24.48. For us to calculate the regular price goes thus:

Since 20% is off, that means that the product was sold at (100% - 20%) = 80% of it's regular price.

Let the regular price be y

80% of y = $24.48

80/100 × y = $24.48

0.8y = $24.48

y = $24.48/0.8

y = $30.6

The regular price is $30.6
