If $300 is 200%, half of that would be 100%. Thus, $150 is the correct answer.

Let's assume

actual cost is x

we are given

An ipod sold for $300, which was 200% of the actual cost

so, it's selling price is 200% of x

[tex] SP=\frac{200}{100} *x [/tex]

[tex] SP=2x [/tex]

we have

SP=$300

now, we can set them equal

[tex] 300=2x [/tex]

now, we can solve for x

[tex] x=150 [/tex]

so, actual cost is $150...........Answer
