Question

A sweater is on sale for 20% off the regular price. The sale price is $60. What is the regular price of the sweater?

Answer 1

$72

Explanation:

Sale % = 20%

Sale price = $60 .

Regular price = (100+20)% = 120%

So that ,

=> Cost = $60 * 120/100

=> Cost = $72

Answer 2

60*.2= 12

$12 is off of the original price

now add to find original price

60+12= 72

So the regular price of the sweater is $72
