Answer 2

Given:

Cost of the cap = $15,

Membership discount = $7

Discount = 12%

To Find:

Original price of the cap

Solution:

The cost of the cap before the membership discount -

= 15 +7

= 22

Thus, price of the cap is $22

Now, discount = 12%

= 100 - 12

= 88%

Thus,

88% = 22

1% = 22/88

100% = 22/88 x 100

= 2200/88

= 25

Answer: The original price of the cap was $25.
