Question 328324
Let {{{p}}} = the original price/dozen of apples
given:
{{{.25p}}} = purchaser's savings after reduction
--------------------
(savings)*(dozens bought) = amount spent
{{{(.25p)*2 = 20}}}
{{{.5p = 20}}}
{{{p = 40}}}
The reduced price/dozen is {{{p - .25p}}}
{{{p - .25p = 40 - 10}}}
{{{40- 10 = 30}}}
The reduced price/dozen is $30
