Question

Patsy found a top on the clearance rack marked 60% off the original price. If the original price is $48, how much will Patsy save?

Answer 1

If the top is $48 and it is 60% off you will multiply the cost by the decimal form of the sale percentage: 48*0.60= $28.80. This is the amount she will save and I think is the answer you are looking for.

If there is a follow up question asking for the final cost of the top you would find that by subtracting the amount saved from the original cost: 48.00-28.80=$19.20.

Answer 2

28.80
