Hi,
This is the question i got in OG 12.
151. A toy store regularly sells all stock at a discount of
20 percent to 40 percent. If an additional 25 percent
were deducted from the discount price during a
special sale, what would be the lowest possible price
of a toy costing $16 before any discount?
(A) $ 5.60
(B) $ 7.20
(C) $ 8.80
(D) $ 9.60
(E) $15.20
The point is that the price before any discount must be greater than $16, but there is no answer satisfying this. Do I get the idea of this question incorrectly?
Thanks
