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.
