Question

a music store is having a clearance sale. all items are discounted by 30%. what is the sale price of a radio that regularly costs $50?

Answer 1

Since the discount is 30%, then the sale is = 100% - 30% = 70% of the cost

= 70% of 50

= (70/100)  * 50

= 0.7 * 50 = 35

Therefore sale = $35
