Answer:

I think it's the second formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price.

The discount rate is 20%

Sale Price is $68.90

Discount = 20% of x = 0.2x

Using the formula, Sale Price = Original Price - Discount,

Original Price - Discount is x-0.2x = 0.8x

$68.90 = 0.8x

From here on, just do the equation :) Hope this helps!
Use the 3rd one because it has fewer steps and will give you the answer
