Question

Crystal buys headphones that are on a sale with a 40% discount. If Crystal pays $24 for the headphones with the discount, what is the full price of the headphones

Answer 1

Answer:$40

Explanation:

Find the price of the item after the discount was applied.

Find the discount percentage that was applied to the price.

Divide the discount percentage by 100.

Subtract that number from 1.

Divide the after-discount price by that number.

This number is the original price of the item, pre-discount.
