Mark is buying a phone that is on sale for two fifths of the original price. After a $32 gift card is used, the total cost before tax is $16. Find the original price
This is because the cost before the gift card was $48. This means that [tex] \frac{2}{5} = 48[/tex] which can be simplified to [tex] \frac{1}{5} = 24[/tex] by multiplying this by 5, we get [tex] \frac{5}{5} = 120[/tex] giving us the final answer of $120.
