Hello! Formula : original price - ( original price · percent) 40 - ( 40 · 0.35) 40 - 14 26 The sales price is $26 because when finding the sales price you have to add the original price to the product of the percent and the original. The original price would be decreased since this is 35% OFF the original price.
First you have to find the difference in price (which for this problem is 14$) Second you subtract the difference in price from the original cost Third what you get from subtracting is your new sale price
To solve first you would subtract the amount she made in tips from her total earnings (317-185) = 132 Then you divide that answer by her hourly salary of $6 (132/6) =22
