Question

NAME

12. Ling wants to buy a sleeping bag.
The sale price is $9. What was the
original price if the sale price was 30?

Answer 1

discount = original price - sale price
original price = sale price + discount
original price = $9 + ($30 - $9)
original price = $9 + $21
original price = $30

Therefore, the original price of the sleeping bag was $30, before the discount was applied and the price was lowered to $9.
