Question 1063916: the final price of Cathy’s sweater after all the discounts was
$2.50. Assume that Cathy got 20% off her Holiday Bonus Bucks. What was the original price of
the sweater? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If Cathy got 20% off, then she paid 80% of the sweater's full price. So:
.8n=2.5
n=2.5/.8=$3.125 as the original price of the sweater.
