Janelle has $75. She buys jeans that are discounted 30% and then uses an in-store coupon for $10 off the discounted price. After paying $3.26 in sales tax, she receives $17.34 in change. What was the original price of the jeans?

ANSWER:

The jean were 31.08 dollars

Explanation:

75 - 10 = 65

3.26 - 65 = 61.74

61.74 - 17.34 = 44.40

30% of 44.40

= 31.08 dollars
