Jean are marked up 150% at Antoinette's Boutique. Today, they are all on sale. 20% off the usual retail price. If the wholesale price of jeans is $20, how much do they sell for today?
-----------------------
Wholesale price = $20
After 150% mark up + $30
After 20% discount = $24
---------------------------------
If you want an equation:
Todays price = 0.8(1.5)20 = $24
