Question

An article sells for $415.80. You wish to discount it by 20%. At what price will you offer it after the discount?

Answer 1

Answer:

Price will you offer it after the discount is $332.64 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

An article sells for $415.80.

You wish to discount it by 20%.

20% is written in the decimal form .

$= \frac{20}{100}$

= 0.20

Discount price = 0.20  × Article cost

                        = 0.20 × 415.80

                        = $ 83.16

Price offer after the discount =  Selling price of the article - Discount price

                                                 = $415.80 - $ 83.16

                                                 = $ 332.64

Therefore price will you offer it after the discount is $332.64 .

Answer 2

Well, $415.80 is the 100% price.
If we want 20% off of this price, we would need the 80% value of $415.80

80% of 415.80 = $332.64

Hope this helps!
