A store owner offered a 40% discount off the regular price of a piece of furniture. The amount of the discount was $72. What is the original price of the mirror?

Answer:

$180

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the discount is 40 percent and is also $72, We will cross multiply. 72 x 100 = 40 x what?

7200/40 = 180

The mirror was originally $180.

$180 :))) hope this helps
