Respuesta :

Yes you can and you do that by multiplying $42×1.30=54.60 and then $54.60×1.25=68.25

The selling price of a phone case with a 25% coupon is $56 and the original selling price of the phone case without any discount is $80.

What is the selling price?

The price at which an article is sold is known as the selling price of that article.

Given that you have a 25% off coupon and paid $42.00 for a phone case. The phone case was marked down 30%. So,

Let's consider that you use a 25% off coupon and then paid $42 for the phone case. The price of phone case including coupon is,

75 % of price  = $42.00

100% of price = [tex]\dfrac {\$42}{75}\times 100[/tex]

100% of Price = $56

Now this price of $56 for a phone case is marked down 30%. It means that this is 70 % of the original selling price.

70% of SP = $56

100% of SP = [tex]\dfrac {\$56}{70}\times 100[/tex]

100% of SP = $80

Hence we can conclude that the original selling price of the phone case without any discount is $80.
