Question

Part A (4 points): Tonya selected a pair of shoes for the regular price of $80. How much money will she save by using the 20% off coupon? Justify your answer using equations, models, and/or words to explain your mathematical reasoning. I need the answer and the model and how you got the answer by tomorrow, Thx. :) Will Medal!

Answer 1

20% = 0.20

 multiply original price ( $0) by 0.20 for the amount of discount then subtract it

80*0.20 = 16.00

 she will save $16

80-16 = 64

 she will pay $64 after the discount

Answer 2

Hello there,


Basic math, The aswer and how I got the answer is 

20% = .20
$80 x .2 = $16
$80-$16 = $64

Therefore, if the original price is $80 and a 20% off coupon is used, Tonya will save $16 and will only have to pay $64.
