Multiply principle by time by rate
1200(.02)(5)
120
There is NO solution.
Cancel t on both sides (1/5 = 7/8).
Since 1/5 = 7/8, that doesn't make any sense so that is inapplicable ( So NO answer).
If the top is $48 and it is 60% off you will multiply the cost by the decimal form of the sale percentage: 48*0.60= $28.80. This is the amount she will save and I think is the answer you are looking for.
If there is a follow up question asking for the final cost of the top you would find that by subtracting the amount saved from the original cost: 48.00-28.80=$19.20.
The number with the same value will be 40 because 10 tens make 100 and 4 tens make 40 so it wili be 140
