Question

en una optica se ofrece la siguiente promoción: se descuenta de la compra de anteojos un porcentaje idéntico a la edad correspondiente del cliente, es decir, si el cliente tiene 23 años, el descuento se le aplica de un 23%. El abuelo de Andrés dice: esos anteojos de $40.000 me costarían tan solo $4.000. ¿Qué edad tiene el abuelo de Andrés?

Answer 1

We will see that the percentage in which the price decreases is 90%, thus the age is 90 years.

How old is Andrés?

We know that the percentage in which the price decreases is equal to the age of Andrés.

We can write:

P = $4,000 = $40,000*(1 - k)

Where k is the percentage in decimal form.

Solving for k:

k = ($40,000 - $4,000)/$40,000 = 0.9

To obtain the percentage, we multiply by 100%.

0.9*100% = 90%

We conclude that Andrés is 90 years old.
