Answer

Find out the price of the shoes last week .

To prove

As given

The price of a pair of shoes is $52.

The price is 15% lower than last week.

15 % is written in the decimal form

= 0.15

15 % of the price of shoes = 0.15 × 52

                                           = 7.8

The price of the shoes last week = price of a pair of shoes this week + 15 % of the price of shoes

                                                        = 52 + 7.8

                                                         = $ 59.8

As

1 dollar = 100 cent

59.8 dollar = 59.8 × 100

                 = 5980 cent .

Therefore the  price of the shoes last week is 5980 cent .
