Answer: $42.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent discount in department store = 38%

The regular price of suit = $112.

Price taken off the regular price of the suit =

38% of $112

So, 38% of $112

= (38/100) x $112

= 0.38 x $112

= $42.56

(i.e the customer will pay $112 - $42.56 = $69.44 only for the suit)

Thus, the price taken off the regular price of the suit is $42.56
