A school librarian can buy books at a 20% discount from the list price. One month she spent $72 for books. What was the list price value of the books? Is the answer $90?

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

let's say that the price of the book was x

the price after a 20% discount is x - 20%*x = x*(1-20%)=x*(1-.20)=0.8*x

and this is $72 so we can write that

0.8*x=72

and then divide by 0.8 both parts

x = 72/0.8=90

So the list price value of the book is $90

and we can verify as 90 - 20%*90 = 90 - 18 = 72

Hope this helps
