Question

The football team ordered 30 uniforms and received a bill for $2.992.50. The total included a 5% discount. What was the order total before the discount?

Answer 1

the no. of uniforms is 30

the bill of 30 uniforms included discount is 2992.50 $

let the total bill was x (without discount )

so the total bill will be

`x-x*(5)/(100)=2992.50`
`\begin{gathered} (95x)/(100)=2992.50 \\ x=3150\text{ \$} \end{gathered}`

so, the AMOUNT OF order before the discount was 3150 $
