Percentage P6 2010 SA2 Catholic High P2 Q??

John had $180 more than Raymond at first. Both bought a different printer with some of their money. In the end, Raymond was left with $20 more than John. If John's printer cost 50% more than Raymond's printer, how much does John's printer cost?


J  [][                        ][                        ][                        ]
R [][$20]<--$180-->[                        ][                        ]


1 u --> 20 + 180 = 200

3 u --> 3 x 200 = $600

It costs $600.
