Question

Jean junction is selling jeans at 15% off the regular price.The regular price is 25.00 per pair. What is the discount amount

Answer 1

0.15 (15 percent) x 25.00 = $3.75

$3.75 = 15% of $25

If it’s a discount amount it means that percentage (15% in this example) needs to be subtracted from the original amount

so, $25 - $3.75 = $21.25

the discounted price of the jeans = $21.25

hope that helped! :)
