David bought a game on sale for $6 less than half its original price. He paid $88 for the game. What was the original price?
Answer (2)
We can't tell with the information given. We don't know the connection between the price David paid for the game, and the price his sister paid for the jacket.
This question is a lot like a radio station out in the country at night that's not tuned in very well, or a billboard with part of the top layer peeled off.
The original price of the game was $188. We found this by setting up an equation based on the information that David paid $6 less than half the original price, which was ultimately solved to find the value of x .
