Answer:
$25.80
Step-by-step explanation:
40% = 40/ 100 = 4/10 = 0,4
There is a 40% discount, which means that the amount multiplied by more then 1 (for example 1,4) would increase the amount... That isn't right because it is a discount!
So you need to subtract the 40%, so (1 - 0.4 =) 0.6
The amount multiplied by 0.6 will be the correct amount, being $43 * 0.6 = $25.80 (rounded to the nearest cent).
The amount the item actually cost after the discount is $25.80

that is the answer sorry if wrong
To solve this problem, first let us calculate for the
total space of the storage area:
Total storage space = (6 square feet / person) (12
persons)
Total storage space = 72 square feet
Since this storage space is only equivalent to 15% of the
total garage space, therefore we can write the equation:
(0.15) total space = total storage space
total space = total storage space / 0.15
Then calculating for the total space by substitution of
the variable:
total space = 72 square feet / 0.15
total space = 480 square feet
<span>Therefore Mr. Thompson has a total space of 480 square
feet.</span>
The insurance company pays 80% of $4,400:
0.8*4400 = $3520
Therefor the amount Marge pays is 4400 - 3520 = $880
Note however that $4400 is the cost of annual group insurance, so to find how much she pays monthly we need to divide the amount she pays in one year by 12:
880/12 = $73.33 (correct to two decimal places)
