A hoodie is on sale for $48. This sale price is 80% of the original price. What was the original price of the hoodie?

 60 dollars

Work Shown:

x = original price

y = sale price

The sale price is always smaller than the original price, so y < x.

The equation linking the two variables is

y = 0.8x

since 80% = 80/100 = 0.8

We know the sale price is $48, which means y = 48. This leads to:

y = 0.8x

0.8x = y

0.8x = 48

x = 48/0.8

x = 60

The original price was $60

Note: since the sale price is 80% of the original price, this must mean that we have a 20% discount (100% - 80% = 20%)

127

whether it's diameter, or radius, i believe if i remember correctly from school, every amount has to always add up to 180. so if you take 53, and starting adding, long story short, taking 127 and adding it to 53, gives you 180.

this is a good question! i’ll do some research and what i find, i’ll contact you asap when i have something! ✊
