Technically he would have to charge $15... If he would add 50% to the initial $20.
Yes, I'm a lot of fun at parties
78 1 ReplyYou could make it work mathematically: the added 50% would need to be based on the initial price and not a modification on the adjusted price.
It's most logically interpreted as:
x * 1.5 * 0.5 = 0.75x
But we could see it as:x - (x/2) + (x/2) = x
I'm equally fun at parties.
