Shirley, Benny, and Gil have a coupon for $2.00 off a large pizza. They each pay one

third of the total after the discount. If each person pays $6, how much was the total
before the discount?

Answer:

20 dollars

Explanation:

Because there is 3 people according to where it said the amount of names there are and they each had to pay 6 dollars. 6 x 3 is 18. That is the price after discount. The coupon is 2 dollars so 18 + 2 is 20 dollars. That is the final price.
