different camera is selling for $7.50 off the regular price. It was marked down 15%. A student used the equation:
15(7.5) = Original price
and found the regular price of the camera to be $112.50.
Explain the error(s) in the student’s work.

Respuesta :

Answer: the actual price is $8.625

Step-by-step explanation: the student multiplied 15x7.5 which gave him 112.50 when he should have done 15/100 = 0.15 x 7.50 = 1.125 +7.50= 8.625
