Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.

How? This is the answer because:

If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...
1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)
2. the ratio will look like this : 39.99/100% x/20%
3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!
4 39.99 x
---------- = ----------
100 20

-price is on the top and percent on the bottom
-you would now do 39.99 times 20
-then divide by 100
5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total
6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)



Hope this helps!

Answer: $31.99


Step-by-step explanation:

So, it is originally $39.99, so first we convert 20% to a decimal, which is 0.2.

Then we do 39.99 * 0.2 to find how much money was taken off.

39.99 * 0.2 = 7.998, or $8

Now, we do the original dollar amount, $39.99, minus the discount, $8, which equals $31.99.

Round the number to the hundredths place. 26,379.87492
Ivahew [28]
If you look at the numbers past the decimal point, the first digit - 8 - is in the tenths place. So, - 7 - is in the hundredths. What number is beside that? 4. When you round four, does it go up to ten or down to zero? Which is it closer to? The answer is zero.

So, the 7 in the hundredths place stays the same and any numbers after it are turned to zeros and cut off. Ending up with 26,379.87
