Problem: john bought a shirt on sale for 25 % off the original price and another 25 % off the discounted price . if the final price was $ 14 , what was the price before the first discount ?
Rationale: "let x be the price before the first discount . the price after the first discount is x - 25 % x ( price after first discount ) a second discount of 25 % of the discounted price after which the final price is 14 ( x - 25 % x ) - 25 % ( x - 25 % x ) = 14 solve for x x = $ 24.88 correct answer c"
annotated_formula: divide(multiply(multiply(const_100, const_100), 14), subtract(multiply(subtract(const_100, 25), const_100), multiply(subtract(const_100, 25), 25)))
