Question

An item is regularly priced at $60. It is now priced at a discount of 85% off the regular price. What is the price now?

Answer 1

Answer:

$9

Step-by-step explanation:

60/10=6

6x80=480

6x5=30

480+30=510

510/10=51

60-51=9

There are probably easier ways to do this :)

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{85}{100} \times 60 \\51 \\ 60 - 51 \\ 9$
