Question

Chester has a coupon for 1/10 off the price of a shirt. If the shirt originally costs $28.70, what discount would chester recieve from using his coupon

Answer 1

Answer:

Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Original cost of shirt = $28.70

Discount =

$\dfrac{1}{10}\text{ of the original price}$

We have to find the discount Chester would receive from using this coupon.

Discount amount =

$=\dfrac{1}{10}\times \text{Original Price}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\times 28.70\\\\=2.87$

Thus, Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.
