Question

A book that normally sells for $25.50 is on sale at 15% off. What is the discount amount, and what is the books sales price

Answer 1

Answer:

1) $3.82 2) $21.68

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's 15% off, the price is 85% of the original price---$25.50*85\% = 21.675 \approx 21.68$, and this gives a difference from the original price and the new price of $25.50-21.68=3.82$.
