Answer:

The original price is $50. The student's mistake in the equation is that he should have done 7.5/0.15

The student should not have multiplied, instead divided. He also didn't put 15 in a decimal form, which would have messed the whole equation up.

Answer:

The student should have divided the discounted amount by the percent. The percent should have been written as a decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

that is what it says in the simple reponse
