Megan saved $21.60 when she purchased a sweater on sale. If the sale price was 60% off the regular price, what was the regular price of the sweater? A. $12.96

B. $34.56

C. $36.00

D. $81.20

The answer would be C. $36.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Off the bat we can cancel out A because it isn't possible.

One way to find the answer would be to find 60% of each answer.

To find the percent of something, we take the % (in this case it is 60) and move the decimal over 2 to the left, leaving us with 0.60

For B: 34.56 x 0.60 = 20.74 so close but not quite

For D: 81.20 x 0.60 = 46.72 so not right

For C: 36.00 x 0.60 = 21.60 so C is the answer

i think is 3 and 6. this took me 10 min to think.hope to and hope that my answer is brainliest.(follow me )

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

x=5
