<p>A store charges 28 dollars for a certain type of sweater. This price is 40 percent more than the amount it costs the store to buy one of these sweaters. At an end of season sale, store employees can purchase any remaining sweaters at 30 percent off the stores cost. how much would it cost an employee to purchase a sweater of this type at this sale?
I say 19.60 but thats not correct.
Whats the right answer and how do you get it?</p>
<p>I think the answer is 14.</p>
<p>x= price store paid
1.4x= 28
x=20
20*.7 = 14</p>
