Luxury items such as watches and jewelry can be up to 30 percent cheaper in Europe than in China. Suppose a watch costs $347.89 in China. How much will it cost in Europe if the difference is a full 30 percent? Round your answer to the nearest whole cent.

it would cost 243.52 because 347.89x.30= 104.37 (rounded). Then, 347.89-104.37=243.52
