Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Because first you divide 160 by 4 (100-20=80, 80/100 simplified is 4/5) and you get 40. Then you multiply 40 by 5 and you get 200. Their are many ways to solve it. I personally think this is the easiest.

HOPE THIS HELPS

200$ is the original price.
20% of 200 is 40 so 200-40 is 160 which is the price of the item while on sale
