Percent means per 100
think cent as in 100 pennies in a dollar
To convert from percent to decimal, we divide by 100 or move the decimal over 2 spots, so,
15% = 15/100 = 0.15
Now multiply 0.15 by 850 to find the discount saved
0.15*850 = 127.50
So you'll save $127.50
The final price is therefore: 850-127.50 = 722.50
A shortcut is to multiply 850 by 0.85
850*0.85 = 722.50
We get the same answer
The 0.85 comes from the fact that if you get 15% off, then you pay 85% of the original price
Answer: $722.50
In the fundamental counting principle, you are multiplying to get the total number of possibilities as a result. For example, if you have 5 different types of bread, 8 types of cheese, and 6 types of meat, you have 240 choices (8 x 6 x 5).
The slope is 0/2 (0) because they are on the same x line.
37.6*0.9=33.84+4^5=1057.84/16=66.115
38%*25=9.5
66.115-9.5=56.615
ANSWER=56.615
