$1.40 - price from a supplier = 100%
100% + 80% = 180% = 1,8 - the retail price
1,40 * 1,8 = $2,52 - the retail price
100% - 25% = 75% = 0,75 - on sale for 25% off
2,52 * 0,75 = $1,89 - the sale price.

Answer:
Here's how I would do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two triangles are similar, corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
We know the measures of b and a, so we can calculate the ratio b/a.
d and b are in the same ratio, so

We know the measures of c, b, and a, so we can calculate the value of d.
