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

Verified Answer :

the answer is $72.00

You have to take 20% and put it into decimal form (.2) then multiply by 60 to find the amount subtracted ($
12) from the original price, then you add 12 to the discounted price.

100% - 20% = 80%

0.80*x=60
x=$75
