Question

Sammie pays $30 for a bag that she buys at a discount of 50%. What is the price of the bag without the discount?

Answer 1

it'd be $60, 50% is half so you double

Explanation:

it'd be $60, 50% is half so you double

Answer 2

The original price of the bag of chips was $60

If the $30 bag of chips was 50% off, in order to find your answer, you would need to do $30 x 2, which $60. Because 50% (half) of $60 is $30.

Hope this helps! Have a great day and good luck! :)
