of the tv?
A. $1798.20
B. $1198.80
C. $199.80
D. $799.20

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought the tv for 80% of the original price. Therefore the original price is higher than $999. Now you can cancel options C and D because they are smaller than $999.

so the original price of the tv is 120% of $999 is $ 1198.80

Therefore the correct option is option B
