If a subscription for 15 issues of a magazine costs $42.00 and represents a saving of 25 percent of the cover prices, what is the cover price per issue?
Correct answer: E
Explanation
Let subscription per magazine = x
15x = 42
=> x= 2.8
Let cover price per magazine = c
Since there is a 25% saving on cover prices
0.75c=x
=> 0.75c = 2.8
=>c= 3.73
