Question

A sales associate at a local boutique sold a jacket for $200 less a 10% discount.

Answer 1

Answer: The discount on the jacket is $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Price of a jacket = $200

Rate of discount = 10%

So, we need to find the discount on the jacket.

Discount on the jacket would be

$200\times \dfrac{10}{100}\\\\=200\times 0.1\\\\=\ 20$

Hence, the discount on the jacket is $20.

Answer 2

0.10(200) = 20...the discount is $ 20
