Answer 1

Answer:

$16.74 will be paid for the chips.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A 40-pack of Doritos cool ranch chips costs $25.75.

It's on sale at 35% off.

Now, to find the price to pay for the chips.

Cost of chips = $25.75.

Sale = 35% off.

According to question:

Thus, to get the cost of chips on sale at 35% off:

$25.75 - 35% of $25.75.

$=25.75-\frac{35}{100} \times 25.75$

$=25.75-0.35\times 25.75$

$=25.75-9.01$

$=16.74$

Therefore, $16.74 will be paid for the chips.
