Algebra help, Problem solving with equations Two stores sell the same computer for the same original price. Store A advertises that the computer is on sale for 25% off the original price. Store B advertises that it is reducing the computer’s price by $180. When Brittany compares the sale prices of the computer in both stores, she concludes that the sale prices are equal. Which equation models this situation? Let p represent the computer’s original price. A.0.25p = p – 180 B.0.75p = p + 180 C.0.25(p – 180) = p D.0.75p = p

Keep in mind - since they sell for the same original price, AND the sale prices are equal, that means that the DISCOUNTS are equal as well.
