Answer:

A. The customer paid the same

amount the store owner paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

its adding 25% of the original $180, then immediately decreasing 25% of the original $180, thus the customer paid the same amount the store owner paid.
C

The higher the number, the more you divide

Here is my way of doing this

I divide it by 10 then multiply by 7.5

So 225 divided by 10 is 22.5

I multiply by 5 and get 112.5 or do 20 x 5 and add 12.5 because the other 2.5 x 5 is 12.5

Then divide it by 2 and add it to the 112.5

So 110 divided by 2 is 55 and 2.5 divided by 2 is 1.25 so 55 + 1.25 is 56.25

Now we add 112.5 + 56.25 is 168.75

180
-168.75 = 11.25
