Respuesta :
15\x and 80\100
15 times 100=1500
1500=8x
then you divide 1500 by 80 so x is by itself
x=18.75
15 times 100=1500
1500=8x
then you divide 1500 by 80 so x is by itself
x=18.75
Answer:
Original price of the shirt was $18.75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let original price of the shirts is $x
Since the selling price of each shirt was 80% of the original price, the selling price will be = 80% of x
= (0.80)x
Since each shirt was sold for $15, the selling price will be represented by
(0.80)x = 15
x = [tex]\frac{15}{0.80}[/tex]
= $18.75
Therefore, the original price of the shirt was $18.75.
