During a sale a store offered a 40% discount on a particular camera that was originally priced at $450. After the sale the discounted price of the camera was increased by 40% wat was the price of the camera after this increase ?

Respuesta :

During the sale, 

     $450 x (100% - 40%)
     $450 x 60%    =   450 x 0.6 = $270 = answer 1

After the sale,

     $270 x 1.4 = $378 = answer 2

Answer:

Answer = $378

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't solve for the price of the camera after the increase of 40% without first solving for the price of the camera during a sale.

In part B the Original is $270 and not $450 because $270 is now the new price of the camera.  

And that my friend is how I got $378.
