Answer:

Sample Response: The student should have divided the discounted amount by the percent. The percent should have been written as a decimal.

first you would make the sale percentage a decimal by moving the decimal over twice

20% = .20

then you would divide $660 by .20 to get the normal price.

$660/.20 = 3300

the normal price was $3300
