Andy received a 25% discount on the book he bought on the sale. If he paid 17.40’ what was the original price for the books

Respuesta :

The answer is....

21.75.


Multiply the Decimal Number by 125% on a nearby calculator, did you get 21.75?

Yes.

Advanced: To find the percent on paper, you multiply: 17.40 x 1.19253

It is just like adding 100% + 25%.

17.40 times 1.19253 equals 21.75.

Hope this helps :))
