Question 1075552: Tia bought a sweater that was discounted for 20% of the original price. She saved $4.60 with the discount. What was the original price of the sweater? Answer by Lightning_Fast(78) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x*0.8=x-4.6
x is the original price of the sweater
solve for x to get the original price.
The left side shows the discount price. The right side is the final result of the price, as we're told is 4.6 minus the original price of the sweatshirt.
