Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A rephrased question would be "Nemo sold his bike for $140 less than he paid for it. He sold the bike for $85. how much did Nemo pay when he first purchase the bike?"
So He Sold it for 85, which is 140 less than p how much he paid, so a equation would be p - 140 = 85. Reverse operations tell us 85+140 is $255!
That should help.
