Question

Please help me.

A store owner offered a 40% discount off the regular price of a piece of furniture. The amount of the discount was $72. What is the original price of the mirror?

Answer 1

$180 :))) hope this helps

Answer 2

$180

Explanation:

Since the discount is 40 percent and is also $72, We will cross multiply. 72 x 100 = 40 x what?

7200/40 = 180

The mirror was originally $180.
