The price of a can of soup was increased by 20%. How many cans can be purchased for the same price that could be used to buy 300 cans?

OpenStudy (shane_b):

If the price was increased by 20% that means you can only buy 80% of the cans you could before. What's 80% of 300?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

240

OpenStudy (shane_b):

That's it....so you can only buy 240 cans now.
