Answer 1

Answer

Find out the what is the clearance price of a manatee.

To prove

As given

The gift shop at manatee mall was having a clearance sale.

Everything was marked down 30%.

The original price of a manatee hat was $12.

30 % is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{30}{100}$

= 0.30

30% of the original price of a manatee = 0.30 × 12

                                                                 = $ 3.6

Clearance price = original price - 30% of the original price

                          = 12 - 3.6

                        = $ 8.4

Therefore the clearance price be $8.4 .
