Question

James buys a shirt and a pair of socks on sale for 25% off. If the price of the shirt before the sale was $24 and he spent a total of $24, what was the original price of the socks? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

$8

Explanation:

Using the information we already know, we can form an equation:

Let x be the socks' original price.

`(24+x)` ×
`0.75=24`

Divide both sides by 0.75

`24+x=32`

Subtract 24 from both sides

`x=8`

The socks' original price was $8.

Answer 2

The price of the socks is dollar 8
