Question

Maria buys 3 packages of paper towels. She has coupons for $0.25 off the regular price of each package. After using the coupons, her total cost is $12. What is the regular price of a package of paper towels?

Answer 1

The regular price of one package of paper towels is $4.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Packages of paper towels bought = 3

Coupon on each package = $0.25 off

Discount on three packages = 0.25*3 = $0.75

Amount paid for packages = $12

Total cost before discount = Amount paid + Discount on 3 packages

Total cost before discount = 12+0.75 = $12.75

Therefore,

$12.75 is the original price of 3 packages.

1 package = $\frac{12.75}{3}=\ 4.25$

The regular price of one package of paper towels is $4.25
