Answer 1

@Kevin

Answer 2

original price = 100%
discount 60%

Answer 3

hey @jiteshmeghwal9
can u help me.. I'm a bit don't understand with the question

Answer 4

hmm,

Answer 5

The discounted price will be 60% * x

Answer 6

Alright is we 4.38$ and have to find the discount

Answer 7

If Ramon paid $4.38
Then it would be :
(100 - 60)% * x = $4.38

Answer 8

ok ok

Answer 9

is it right?

Answer 10

let the original price be x.

discount offered=60%
final price = x-(60% of x) = 40 % of x

Answer 11

but isn't 4.38 just what he paid?

Answer 12

It supposed to come at $10.95.

Answer 13

we have to find 60% more than 4.38

Answer 14

i dont think so

Answer 15

Maybe 9.20$?

Answer 16

40% of x= $4.38
\[\frac{40}{100}*x=$4.38\]

Answer 17

ok

Answer 18

In the book it's saying 10.95

Answer 19

I don't know but were finding the 60%

Answer 20

yup the answer is $10.95

let the original price be x.

discount offered=60%
final price = x-(60% of x) = 40 % of x

40% of x=4.38
x=\(\Large \frac{4.38*100}{40}\)

Answer 21

Well, whatever is the answer.
