If something is $100 and you get 20% discount it is $80.
If you pay $100 and you got20% discount the original price was $125
If you have to buy a present for $100 you spend:
$100
The discount is irrelevant. You payed $100 so that's it.

A 20% discount means 20% of the total is taken away. That means the final price is $80.
Now, if you paid $100 for a present, and that was the price after your 20% discount, then the original price was $125.
No taxes counted, of course.

Given $100,
A 20% discount is $100 x 20/100 = $20
So, the final price is $100 - $20 = $80.

the actual price is 80 dollars, but then if you do not want the people who paid you 100 dollars to know that you got the 20% discount, then naturally it is 100 dollars.

I think it's $80 but the question is kinda confusing.
If you meant that it cost $100 after the 20% then the original price was $125.

it cost $80.00 if you bought a $100.00 present and got a 20% discount. So if you get a 20% discount, then you have 1.00 (one whole)-.20(minus 20%) =.80. So then you would multiply the original price by .8 because you will only be paying 80% of the total price of that item.

80 dollars??...
BUT if you mean that you PAYED 100 dollars AFTER getting a 20% discount that means it was originally 125 bucks.

$80. Unless you mean the ORIGINAL price (you paid $100). Then it's $125.

lets say final price is x
so 80% of x = 100
i.e. (80/100) * x =100
4x = 500
x = 125
Hence the original price is 125.
