Question

Original price? The discount is 40% in the sale price is $18

Answer 1

Answer:

$10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 18 to .4 to get 7.2. Then subtract the 40% discount from the sale price. 18-7.2 = $10.8

Answer 2

The original price is 30$ because we know that the new price is worth 60% of the old price. We can set up an equation to model this: 0.60x = 18. Dividing both side by 0.60 gives us an original value of 30. If you take 40% off of 30 you get 18 — allowing us to check our work.
