Answer:

$90

Explanation:

Let $x be the initial price of the hat before being discounted.

If the store offers 20% discount on the price of hat, it will become;

20% of $x

If the discounted price is $18, then;

20% of $x = $18

20/100 of $x = $18

20x/100 = $18

20x = $1800

x = $1800/20

x = $90

Therefore the regular price of the hat is $90
