760usd

Step-by-step explanation:

x=152*5=760usd

Answer 2

Answer:

760$

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright so, we know that there is 80% reduction. But to find the exact percentage reduction for the sale price we know that we have to take the total subtract with the given percentage.

That is

100%- 80%= 20%

Then

20%=152$

1%=152/20

100%=152/20×100= 760 $
