here's my problem: chris bought a movie ticket for $10.80 wile the store was having a 25% off sale. the sale is now over. how much would the same movie cos today?

OpenStudy (sandra):

ok, so the 25% off means that chris bought the ticket for 75% of the price

OpenStudy (sandra):

so .75x = 10.80 x = 10.80/.75 x = 14.40

OpenStudy (sandra):

now let's check it - 14.4 - (.25x1.4) = ? 14.40 - 3.60 = 10.80

OpenStudy (sandra):

yep!

OpenStudy (sandra):

sorry (.25 x 14.4) in the line above last
