Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
He bought the airfryer for $125.12 after all the discount.
So, $125.12 was 92% of the member discount. Then 100% of member discount is ($125.12*100)/92 = $136.
Find usual price --> $136 will be 85% of usual price because store provided 15% discount. Then Usual price will be ($136 * 100)/85 = $160.
The usual price of the airfryer is $160.
