Mr. McGregor went to Target to buy four pairs of dress socks. There was a 30% off sale on the socks, and his total bill before tax was $14. What was the original price of each pair of socks?

It’s 4.55, all you gotta do is add 30% to 14 then divide it by 4

Answer:

Each pair of socks cost $4.55

Explanation:

14*.30=4.2

14+4.2=18.2
