Question

At a sale, coats were sold for $184 each. If the coats originally cost $200 each, what percentage of its original price was a coat sold for?

Answer 1

Answer:

92%

Step-by-step explanation:

sale price is 184.

original price was 200.

184/200 = 0.92

Multiply by 100 to change to a percent.

0.92 × 100 = 92

184 is 92% of 200.

The coat was sold for 92% of its original price.

Answer 2

92 % of original

Step-by-step explanation:

200 *  x   = 184      where x = decimal percentage

x = 184/200 = .92    which is 92%
