Henri bought 3 jars of spaghetti sauce. He used a coupon that reduced the cost of each jar by $0.75. If he paid $6.72 altogether, what was the regular price?

Answer: $8.97

Explanation:

he bought three jars and lowered the price by 75 cents for each, so multiply $0.75 by three

$0.75 * 3 = $2.25

so henri saved $2.25 in total

we can add that to what he paid to find the original cost

$6.72 + $2.25 = $8.97

so the original price was $8.97 :)
