50 POINTS Marcus says that a store overcharged him on the price of the video game he bought. He thought that the price was marked of the original price, but it was really off the original price.
He misread the advertisement.

If the original price of the game was $48, what is the difference between the price that Marcus thought he should pay and the price that the store charged him?

$14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the original price of the game was $48 and the store wanted to sell it with 1/4 off the total price, we can say that (48) - (48 *1/4) = 36. Since marcus thought that he was buying the game for 1/4 of the original price, that would be 48 * 1/4 = 12.

The difference between 36 and 12 is 14, which would be the answer.
