Answer:
Explanation:
1) Regular price = $ 20
Reduction = 18% of regular price
= 0.18 * 20
= 3.6
Discount price = 20 - 3.6 = $ 16.4
2) Regular price = $ x
Reduction = 18% of regular price
= 0.18 * x
= 0.18x
Discount price =$ (20 - 0.18x)
3) Discount price = $ 18.45
Let the regular price be x
(100 - 18)% of x = 18.45
82% of x = 18.45
![(82)/(100)*x=18.45\\\\ x = 18.45* (100)/(82)\\\\ x = 22.50](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/college/nw0631fgc8oj19iv2dgwpczi2g3oqx8u9c.png)
Regular price = $22.50
