Question

Which expression could be used to determine the cost of a $50 video game after a 20 percent discount?

Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak{Answer:}$

The price of the video game is now 50 dollars after the 20% discount.

The question is what is the expression to be able to solve that amount before 20% discount.

=> 100% - 20% = 80% => 50

where x is the unknown number that we need to know

.80 = 50 => .80x/.80 = 50 / .80

x = 62 .5 dollars is the original price of the said video game on sale.
